815 East 242nd Street, Bronx, NY 10470

The four-unit residential building at 815 East 242nd Street in Wakefield, owned by Mario Rivera, has been facing consistent regulatory challenges over the past several years. Most notably, there is a recurring pattern of Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the filing of annual bedbug reports, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024.

These ongoing violations suggest a lack of compliance with mandatory reporting requirements, though they do not necessarily indicate current pest issues. In terms of pest control, the building underwent both initial and compliance rodent inspections, with the most recent inspection in January 2023 resulting in a passing grade, following a failed inspection in November 2022 for unspecified reasons, indicating some improvements in pest management protocols.

The two-story structure, built in 1931 and classified as a New Law Tenement, has a documented history of maintenance oversight that warrants attention. While rodent inspection results show some progress, the persistent bedbug report violation pattern over four consecutive years is particularly noteworthy. The building's relatively small size and age may present unique maintenance challenges, and the open violations suggest ongoing administrative compliance issues.
