851 East 227th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-unit, two-story building at 851 East 227th Street in Wakefield, currently owned by Hr 227 LLC, has experienced several notable incidents and maintenance issues over recent years. Most recently, in March 2023, the building received an A-class violation for failing to file the mandatory annual bedbug report, though subsequent filings in 2024 show no evidence of infestation.

In mid-2022, one apartment (Apartment 1) was found to have multiple safety issues including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and a broken door lock, though these violations were subsequently closed. The building's complaint history from 2020-2021 shows several construction-related complaints, including multiple allegations of work being performed contrary to approved plans and unauthorized construction activities, with one violation resulting in a $5,000 penalty for violating COVID-19 construction restrictions. The property has maintained generally good compliance with safety regulations in recent years, with no reported rodent issues since passing a 2022 inspection, and all bedbug reports from 2020 to present showing zero affected units.

While there were multiple complaints regarding drainage issues in 2020, inspections did not find any violations. The building's permit history shows active maintenance and improvement work during 2019-2020, with several permits issued for different types of work including plumbing and electrical modifications. The consistent pattern of resolving violations and maintaining bedbug-free status since 2022 suggests improved management attention to maintenance requirements, though the building's history of various safety violations and construction-related complaints indicates previous periods of maintenance challenges.
