828 East 214th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The two-family house at 828 East 214th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Landry Marcell, is a two-story residential building constructed in 1899. The building has experienced several significant events over the past few years, with the most notable issues occurring in early 2021 when two emergency heat and hot water complaints were filed regarding the entire building.

While the second complaint was closed without inspection access, the first complaint prompted an HPD inspection. These heating system issues, occurring in March 2021, were particularly concerning given the building's age and the essential nature of heating systems in New York City's climate. The property has also faced challenges with rodent control, as evidenced by a rat sighting complaint filed in December 2020.

This initial complaint led to an inspection by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, which fortunately found no violations. However, the building has demonstrated good maintenance in this area, passing three subsequent rodent inspections conducted in 2019, 2021, and most recently in September 2022. The most recent building records show no further heating system complaints or rodent-related issues, suggesting that these problems may have been addressed, though the age of the building and previous heating system issues warrant continued monitoring of systems and pest control conditions.
