645 East 227th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The 645 East 227th Street building is a three-story, three-unit converted dwelling constructed in 1950, currently owned by 645 East 227th Street LLC. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly during 2022, which appears to have been a problematic year for the building. Between March and August 2022, the second-floor apartment faced multiple emergency situations including plumbing problems (toilet, sink, shower), electrical issues (power outage, wiring problems), pest infestations (bedbugs and rodents), door and window repairs, and unsanitary conditions involving mold.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issued various violations during this period, including issues with bathroom tiles, kitchen floor tiles, window repairs, sink/waste line, and multiple door-related problems. The building's most recent recorded issue occurred in February 2023 with a heat/hot water complaint, though this was resolved within four days. Notably, the bedbug situation appears to have improved significantly, as the most recent reports for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 periods show no infested units, following three consecutive years of infestations between 2019 and 2022.

A rodent inspection conducted in October 2022 resulted in a passing grade. While the building has faced multiple maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that most of the documented violations and complaints from 2022 were eventually closed, often after necessary repairs were made. The most recent violations and complaints have been less frequent, though the age of these records should be considered when assessing current conditions.
