2832 Middletown Road, Bronx, NY 10461

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 2832 Middletown Road in Schuylerville, owned by Lazder Smajlaj, has experienced several notable maintenance issues since 2018. Most concerning are the persistent bedbug reporting violations, with open citations from 2021 through 2024 indicating non-compliance with HPD's annual reporting requirements. The building's documented problems began in October 2018, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding heating issues, window frame problems, and mold problems, particularly affecting Apartment 1 on the first floor.

While some HPD inspections from October 2018 resulted in violations (specifically for window frames), others found no violations. These issues appear to have been addressed, as the most recent rodent inspection in October 2019 passed successfully. Further violations from 2018 indicate specific maintenance requirements for Apartment 1, including repairs to the lower sash windows in two rooms and remediation of approximately 2 square feet of mold around a bathroom window frame.

An exterior lighting violation from May 2018 requires the installation of adequate lighting at the building's front entranceway. The most recent open violations, dating back to 2018, relate to an unmet requirement for proper bedbug reporting, which has remained unresolved across multiple inspection years (2021-2024). Despite these ongoing compliance issues, there have been no recorded heating or water complaints since the initial incidents in October 2018, suggesting some improvement in building systems.
