847 East 232nd Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-story, six-unit residential building at 847 East 232nd Street in Wakefield, owned by Omar Armoogan, has experienced several concerning issues over recent years, particularly relating to heating systems and safety compliance. Most notably, there have been seven heat/hot water complaints between March 2023 and January 2025, with the most recent complaints in January 2025 being inspected by HPD but found not to violate housing laws.

The building has multiple open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2024, including serious safety concerns such as missing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 2A, and various maintenance issues in Apartment 3A including plumbing problems, plaster damage, and the need for roof repairs to address leaks. The property has an alarming pattern of unresolved regulatory violations, including multiple open Department of Buildings violations relating to failure to file annual external low pressure inspections between 2018 and 2023. A significant cluster of complaints was filed in June 2024 regarding various maintenance issues including mold, plumbing problems, and window frame concerns.

While there was one health-related complaint about standing water from 2020 that remains open, the building's bedbug report from 2021 shows no infestation issues during the documented period. The most recent Department of Buildings complaint regarding illegal conversion from 2025 resulted in access being denied during inspection. The building, constructed in 1930, has a long history of maintenance challenges requiring ongoing attention to basic safety and habitability standards.
