4315 Byron Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

4315 Byron Avenue is a 3-unit, 3-story residential building located in Wakefield and owned by Casto Rodriguez. The property, constructed in 1925, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past seven years, with the most concerning being a cooking gas emergency in July 2022 that required HPD intervention.

Between 2021-2024, the building received multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations, including three annual bedbug report requirements (2021, 2023, 2024) and a Class B violation in 2021 regarding a defective boiler exhaust flue pipe that was ultimately repaired. The summer of 2018 was particularly eventful, with multiple violations related to safety and maintenance, including improper storage of combustible materials in the boiler room, the need for proper gas leak procedure postings, and various requirements for notices regarding smoke detectors and heating system access. The building's more recent history shows improvement in certain areas, with no reported bedbug infestations or successful treatments over the past three years (2022-2025), and a passed rodent inspection in November 2022.

Two complaints regarding water drainage/retention issues were filed in 2019, but both were deemed without warrant during inspections. The property has maintained a "Closed" status on all violations, suggesting they have been addressed, though formal certification dates are not always provided in the records. The most recent violation, issued in April 2024, pertains to the filing of annual bedbug reports, while the previous completed violations from 2023 and 2021 also relate to bedbug reporting requirements.
