711 East 231st Street, Bronx, NY 10466
The 55-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 711 East 231st Street in Wakefield, currently owned by 711-715 E. 231 St. LLC, has experienced ongoing heating system issues throughout 2024 and into 2025, with multiple complaints about no heat or hot water affecting the entire building. The most recent heating complaint was filed in March 2025, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored by HPD during inspection.
The building has also faced several other maintenance challenges, including a February 2025 safety inspection related to the fire escape, which was found not to violate housing laws, and various appliance-related complaints in late 2024. Notable violations include an open violation from December 2024 regarding the fire escape extension on the 2nd floor, and multiple housing maintenance code violations from September 2024 related to water leaks and maintenance issues in Apartment 6D and Apartment 3B. The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about single device service and various mechanical issues between 2022 and 2024, including two active ECB violations from 2024 regarding elevator safety features and other mechanical problems. The building's inspection history reveals persistent maintenance issues, particularly with water systems and elevator operations.
Between 2010 and 2017, there were multiple rodent inspection results showing non-compliance for "other reasons," though more recent bedbug reports from 2021 to 2024 show no infestations or eradication efforts required. The building has two active Department of Buildings violations as of 2025 regarding failure to display energy efficiency scores and failure to certify correction of immediately hazardous ECB violations. The property has undergone various repairs and maintenance work in recent years, including multiple housing violations related to water leaks, plaster repairs, and door maintenance, though many of these have been closed through proper certification of repairs. The building's documented history shows a pattern of recurring heating system problems, elevator maintenance issues, and periodic water-related maintenance challenges, with the most recent concerns primarily centered around heating systems and elevator operations.
