821 Wilcox Avenue, Bronx, NY 10465

This 3-unit, 2-story residential building located at 821 Wilcox Avenue in Throgs Neck, owned by Paola Espinosa, has experienced several notable events since 2019, with particular attention required for bedbug-related compliance issues. Between 2021 and 2024, the property received four Housing Maintenance Code violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD, though all these violations have been closed.

The most recent bedbug report filing in May 2024 for the period from November 2022 to October 2023 indicates no infested units, no units that were eradicated or re-infested, suggesting successful compliance with bedbug mitigation protocols by 2024. The building's rodent inspection history shows mixed results, with a failed initial inspection in May 2019 for unspecified reasons, followed by a successful compliance inspection in November 2019.

While the rodent issue appeared to be resolved by late 2019, the earlier violation patterns related to both bedbugs and rodents indicate the building has faced some pest management challenges in recent years. The property, constructed in 1920 and classified as a "Heretofore Converted Class A" building, has shown improvement in its pest management practices over the last two years, with no recent violations or infestations reported, though the historical pattern suggests careful monitoring of pest management practices is warranted whenever historical records are reviewed for this property.
