232 East 176th Street, Bronx, NY 10457

232 East 176th Street in Mount Hope is a three-story, seven-unit residential building constructed in 1899 and currently owned by Chaim Green. The property has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in March 2024, including water leaks, mold, heat and hot water issues, and window frame concerns, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations in these cases.

Similar maintenance challenges were documented in 2019, including multiple plumbing issues, ceiling problems, and reports of pests, though again, no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The building underwent some construction activity in 2023, generating multiple complaints between June and October 2023 regarding construction safety, work contrary to approved plans, and demolition concerns, though inspections found no violations in these cases and stop work orders were fully rescinded.

The property appears to have maintained a relatively stable condition regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in the most recent reporting period from November 2022 to October 2023, showing zero infested or previously infested dwelling units as of August 2024. The building's management has demonstrated compliance with reporting requirements and has generally responded to maintenance issues, though many complaints have required multiple reports before resolution. Importantly, despite the frequency of maintenance complaints, most have been addressed without resulting in formal violations, suggesting responsive but reactive management to building conditions.
