730 East 227th Street, Bronx, NY 10466
The three-unit, three-story tenement building at 730 East 227th Street in Wakefield, owned by Albert Criss, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues since 2022. Most recently, in August 2024, the building faced multiple emergency complaints including mold, plumbing problems with the bathtub/shower, and issues with doors and windows.
There are currently several open housing maintenance code violations from August 2024 affecting Apartment 1, including problems with paint, a defective bathtub finish, broken door handle, window sashes, and various ceiling and wall issues. Of particular concern is an open violation regarding an unauthorized conversion of the Class "A" apartment into illegal B-rooms with a community kitchen and bathroom, which carries an active Environmental Control Board penalty of $6,250.
The building has a history of pest issues, evidenced by violations in February 2024 and earlier complaints in 2019. There were also multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues in late 2023 and early 2024, though not all could be inspected. Inspections in late 2022 for rodent compliance failed for "Other Reasons." The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved sanitation and structural issues, including flooring problems, paint/plaster concerns, and various plumbing and electrical problems as evidenced by numerous HPD and Housing Maintenance Code complaints and violations.
