1257 Hobart Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

1257 Hobart Avenue is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in the Schuylerville neighborhood, built in 1925 and classified as a New Law Tenement. The property, currently owned by Franco Marciano, has undergone regular monitoring for bedbug activity over the past several years. Notably, from 2021 through 2025, the building maintained a clean record with zero reported infestations, as evidenced by the bedbug reports submitted in 2022, 2023, and most recently in June 2025.

The building's rodent inspection conducted in April 2019 also resulted in a passing grade, indicating no significant pest issues. The property has experienced some regulatory scrutiny, particularly regarding bedbug reporting compliance. Between 2021 and 2024, the building received multiple Class A Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, with inspection dates ranging from 2021 to 2024.

However, these violations appear to have been addressed, as the most recent bedbug report for the period ending October 2024 shows no infestation claims. An illegal conversion complaint was filed in June 2024, but the Department of Buildings was unable to gain access for inspection during the final attempts, and the complaint remains unresolved as of the 2024 filing. Additionally, there is an open DOHMH complaint from August 2020 regarding an unpermitted animal facility, which is still in progress. These regulatory issues warrant attention, particularly the ongoing animal facility complaint and the illegal conversion complaint that remains unresolved.
