4128 Wickham Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-family building at 4128 Wickham Avenue in Wakefield, owned by Jessica Sookar, has experienced several notable events over the past few years. The property, built in 1920 and currently classified as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building, has been subject to regular bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2024. Most recently, the 2024 bedbug report indicated no infestations during the period from November 2022 to October 2023, marking a positive development in pest management for the building.

The building faced significant structural concerns in 2022, particularly regarding a retaining wall in the rear yard that was reported as cracked and separating. This led to several Department of Buildings violations and complaints from March to June 2022, including issues with a shed and construction work. While initial violations were issued requiring the demolition of a shed and retaining wall, follow-up inspections in 2022 and 2025 confirmed these issues had been resolved.

The property underwent construction work in 2022, with various permits issued, including a demolition permit in September 2022 related to the retaining wall and slope stabilization. All construction-related complaints from 2022 were ultimately closed with no violations warranted at the time of inspection. The building's most recent bedbug report requirement from April 2024 indicates the owner has maintained compliance with housing maintenance codes, though this has been an ongoing requirement since 2021. The property has successfully transitioned through several structural and pest management challenges over the past few years, with recent records showing improved conditions and compliance, particularly regarding bedbug management.
