773 East 231st Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-family residential building at 773 East 231st Street in Wakefield, owned by Stanley Palmer, has a notable history of maintenance and safety concerns over the past several years. Most recently, in early 2025, there were two emergency complaints regarding lack of lighting and heat/hot water, with the lighting issue reportedly being corrected while access to verify heat/hot water conditions was not granted.

The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with similar complaints filed in December 2023, December 2019, and multiple times between 2019-2025. There were also concerns about pests, with non-emergency complaints about unsanitary conditions filed in October 2019. The property has open violations from 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC.

Additinally, there is an outstanding violation from December 2019 regarding a mouse infestation in apartment 2F. This building had unsuccessful rodent inspections in July and May 2014, suggesting ongoing issues with pest management. The violations and repeated complaints indicate persistent challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort, particularly regarding essential services such as heat/hot water and pest control, though some conditions have reportedly been corrected upon inspection or are still under investigation.
