4436 Richardson Avenue, Bronx, NY 10470

The property at 4436 Richardson Avenue in Wakefield is a 3-unit, 2-story building constructed in 1901 under the ownership of Joy Elvin.

The building has a concerning and persistent pattern of open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with four consecutive violations from 2021 through 2024, indicating non-compliance with New York City's Housing Maintenance Code requirements to file annual bedbug reports with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). These open violations are particularly noteworthy as they represent an ongoing regulatory non-compliance issue over several years.

Despite the repeated bedbug reporting violations, there is at least one positive compliance indicator: the building successfully passed an initial rodent inspection in November 2022, suggesting that while there may be issues with bedbug reporting, the building met the necessary standards for rodent control at that time. The property appears to be following an unusual pattern with its bedbug reporting compliance, as the same violation has been cited consistently over four years, which might indicate either ongoing bedbug issues or administrative oversight in report submissions, though this cannot be definitively determined from the available data alone.
