763 East 227th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-unit, two-story New Law Tenement building at 763 East 227th Street in Wakefield, owned by Rosa Albano and built in 1901, has experienced significant maintenance issues throughout 2025, particularly in the areas of sanitation and electrical systems. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of pest-related complaints, with five separate reports of unsanitary conditions due to pests between January and June 2025, three of which occurred between March and May involving access issues during inspections.

The building has also faced multiple electrical problems, including two "no lighting" incidents in March and May 2025, with at least one being classified as an emergency. Additional concerns included two incidents of heat and hot water issues in January 2025, though inspections confirmed restoration of services.

While some violations were issued in response to the most recent pest complaint in May 2025, and previous complaints had varied resolutions, the pattern of issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. It's worth noting that during several inspections, HPD inspectors were unable to gain access to the units, either requiring follow-up scheduling or receiving no timely response from occupants. The building's complaint history shows a mix of emergency and non-emergency categorization for these issues, with the most recent complaints occurring just weeks ago as of July 2025.
