656 East 225th Street, Bronx, NY 10466
The two-story, four-unit tenement building at 656 East 225th Street in Wakefield, owned by Stacey Joseph and constructed in 1929, has a concerning pattern of unaddressed housing maintenance violations and pest-related issues over recent years.
Most notably, the building has accrued four consecutive violations (2021-2024) related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by NYC Housing Maintenance Code, with all of these violations remaining open as of the latest inspection in April 2024.
The property has also experienced persistent rodent problems, with two rat activity inspections recorded in late 2022 (October and November), following earlier inspections showing mixed results: one compliance inspection passed in June 2018, while an initial inspection in December 2016 failed for unspecified reasons. The repeat nature of the bedbug report violations and the recent rodent activity suggests ongoing challenges with pest management and compliance with housing regulations, though it's worth noting that the building maintains a simple two-story structure typical of New York's older tenements.
