956 East 217th Street, Bronx, NY 10469
The two-family (HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A) residential building at 956 East 217th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Isalyn Hazelwood and constructed in 1930, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant problems occurring in 2023 and 2024. Currently, there are open violations from 2024 related to a missing bedbug report and from 2023 affecting Apartment 2, including issues with the ceiling's paint/plaster, smoke detector, bathtub's porcelain finish, and roof leaks, as well as documented problems with mold and pest infestation in that unit.
The building has experienced recurring electrical issues, with multiple power outages reported between 2021 and 2023, including an emergency situation in January 2023 and additional electrical problems identified in 2025 (open non-emergency complaint regarding outlets/switches). There have also been multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including mold, sewage issues, and pest problems, though several inspections were unable to gain unit access. The building's recent inspection history reveals several outstanding maintenance concerns that could affect resident comfort and safety.
These include water damage and mold issues in Apartment 2, though initial rodent inspections in 2022 returned a passing grade. There have been multiple unsuccessful attempts (in 2023) to investigate complaints regarding illegal conversions of the space, with inspectors unable to gain access on multiple occasions, though a previous 2019 investigation into egress issues resulted in no violations being found at that time. The property has shown a pattern of maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment 2, with violations related to moisture issues, pest problems, and various infrastructure concerns.
