720 East 221st Street, Bronx, NY 10467

720 East 221st Street in Williamsbridge is an 8-story, 36-unit residential building constructed in 2007, currently managed by Granville Senior. The property has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with four documented emergency complaints between 2020 and 2022, though in each instance, tenants reported that the problems were promptly resolved. A notable pest issue was reported in February 2022, which resulted in an HPD inspection that found no violations.

The building has maintained a proper bedbug reporting record since 2018, with no documented infestations in the most recent reports from 2024 and 2023. The building has several active Department of Buildings violations related to maintenance compliance. These include failure to file required external low-pressure inspections for 2021-2023, and a failure to submit the FISP Cycle 9B Technical Report by February 2023, which incurs a substantial penalty of $6250.

There are also historical violations from 2018-2024 regarding exterior wall inspection requirements, though most of these were resolved or dismissed based on subsequent corrections. An elevator-related complaint from 2018 was investigated but found no violations. The building underwent a rodent inspection in September 2022 and passed, indicating no current issues with rodent infestations. Despite these challenges, the property appears to have maintained basic habitability standards, with most reported issues being promptly addressed, though the accumulation of active violations related to inspection filings may warrant attention.
