2213 Powell Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The two-family residential building at 2213 Powell Avenue in Unionport, owned by Sylvia Girau, is a three-story structure built in 1960. Recent investigations reveal concerns regarding the building's Certificate of Occupancy status, with two notable complaints filed in 2018-2019.

Both complaints, entered in August 2018 and January 2019, were categorized as relating to "None/ILLEGAL/Contrary to CO" issues. Unfortunately, both inspection attempts on February 1, 2019, and December 1, 2018, were unsuccessful due to the inspector's inability to gain access to the property, marking them as "2nd Final Attempt" in the disposition code.

While these complaints were ultimately closed, it's worth noting that the resolution process spanned several months, with the February 2019 complaint taking approximately six months from filing to inspection attempt, and the December 2018 complaint's process taking approximately four months. The building's Certificate of Occupancy history shows recurring access issues during the inspection process, which raises questions about the property management's responsiveness to regulatory oversight. Given that these events occurred between 2018 and 2019, there have been no documented complaints or inspection attempts related to Certificate of Occupancy issues since February 2019, though there may be updates or changes that occurred after October 2023 that are not captured in this report.
