738 East 220th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The four-story, 9-unit building at 738 East 220th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Javier Monroy and constructed in 2008, has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years. The most pressing concerns emerged between October and December 2024, when multiple violations were documented including problems with appliances (refrigerators and electric/gas range), wall and ceiling paint/plaster conditions, and the presence of mold. Notably, the building received a Section 8 Failure designation during this period.

The most recent complaint, filed in April 2025 regarding a door issue, resulted in an incomplete HPD inspection. The building has a history of inspections and violations that require attention. In Apartment 1F (first floor), violations were found in October 2024 related to mold, carbon monoxide detector absence, smoke detector absence, gas supply issues, and various repair needs involving the bathroom's tiles, door, and plaster surfaces.

Apartment 3R (third floor) was documented in December 2023 with issues regarding water leaks and paint requirements. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years (as per the 2022-2025 Bedbug Reporting), the building's rodent inspections showed mixed results, with three passes and one failure between 2015 and 2022. These records suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that have affected resident living conditions, particularly during 2024 when multiple violations were issued and required formal correction processes.
