707 East 189th Street, Bronx, NY 10458
The 6-unit, 3-story building at 707 East 189th Street in the Belmont neighborhood, owned by 707 East 189th Street LLC, has been in operation since 1931 and has experienced several significant events in recent years. Most concerning are three active Environmental Control Board violations issued in October 2024, totaling $5,000 in penalties, for unauthorized work at the cellar level including the installation of additional electrical lines, water and waste lines for a bathroom, and construction of partitions to create a bathroom and bedroom. These violations also include an occupancy issue, as the building's Certificate of Occupancy indicates it should be a 3-story, 5-family structure, but there are indications of a 6-unit configuration.
The building has maintained an active rodent inspection record, with all inspections in 2025 passing, though there was one failed inspection in August 2023 (reason not specified). A window safety issue was reported in December 2024 when a missing or broken window guard complaint was filed, though HPD was unable to complete their inspection. The property has consistently filed bedbug reports between 2021-2024, though all reports indicate zero infested units, suggesting effective management of this potential issue. The building also experienced two illegal conversion complaint investigations in 2024, though inspections either resulted in no violations or access was denied.
The building's recent inspection history shows regular compliance with rodent control requirements, with multiple inspections passing directly through 2025. Historical documentation of bedbug reports from 2021-2024 indicates effective management of this pest, with zero infested units reported in each annual filing. The property passed a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection in May 2025 following a rat sighting complaint, and while there was an emergency window safety complaint in 2024, the violation status for this complaint is not currently active in the records. The Building's Class A designation and relatively consistent passing rates for various inspections suggest ongoing property maintenance, though the active ECB violations related to unauthorized construction work represent significant outstanding compliance issues as of mid-2025.
