711 East 218th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-story, three-unit building at 711 East 218th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Jagjit Hora and constructed in 1901, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most recently, in late 2024, the property faced multiple emergency plumbing issues, including problems with water supply, sinks, and toilets, along with concerns about window guard safety. Notable open violations from November 2024 relate to failure to properly post critical safety information regarding carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and the building's heating system.

The building has a history of water-related issues, with multiple complaints regarding leaks in 2024, including a slow leak that was reported in July 2024, as well as persistent problems with plumbing fixtures in the first-floor apartment. The property has undergone various inspections and repairs, including a rodent inspection in July 2025 that passed. Of particular note was a 2022 ECB violation regarding improper use of PEX tubing for domestic water lines, which resulted in a $1,250 penalty.

Historical complaints show recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, including garbage storage problems (most recently in 2024) and multiple plumbing issues affecting various building systems. The building's safety record shows both improvements and ongoing concerns, with some complaints being resolved through inspection and correction, while others remain outstanding or were closed without resolution. Regular maintenance and prompt attention to violations appear to be a continuing need for this property, based on the frequency and variety of reported issues.
