2207 University Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

At 2207 University Avenue in University Heights, a property currently owned by Good Shepherd Services and built in 1920, there are several ongoing compliance issues that warrant attention. Most notably, there is a persistent pattern of violations regarding annual bedbug report filings over the past four years (2021-2024), with these Class A violations remaining open as of 2024. The building has also accumulated multiple violations related to boiler inspections, with open violations for failure to file the 2022, 2023, and 2024 external low-pressure boiler inspections.

These issues appear to have financial implications, as indicated by an Environmental Control Board violation from July 2019 that resulted in a $2,000 penalty for electrical work performed without a proper permit. Despite these compliance challenges, the building has consistently passed rodent inspections from 2020 through 2025, suggesting effective pest control in this regard. Historical complaint records show a cluster of issues in 2019, including concerns about electrical wiring and work done without permits, though these complaints were eventually closed without violations being substantiated.

The property has maintained an active permit record, with several permits issued between late 2018 and early 2019 for electrical and plumbing work. While some of these permits have associated violations, they were resolved through proper follow-up procedures. The most recent inspection in April 2025 indicates at least some level of attention to building maintenance standards, though the persistent nature of some violations suggests ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance.
