908 East 223rd Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-family house at 908 East 223rd Street in Wakefield, owned by Development Group 52 Corp, is a two-story building constructed in 1920. The property has recently experienced multiple maintenance issues, with the most significant problems emerging in early 2024. Between March 11 and March 25, 2024, there were several complaints and violations recorded, including pest infestations, water leaks, and ceiling damage, with the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) issuing violations in response to these issues.

Specifically, as of April 2024, there are currently open Class B violations related to water leaks and damaged plaster/paint in multiple rooms and bathrooms within the second-floor apartment, suggesting persistent maintenance challenges. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly regarding water damage and ceiling conditions. There are multiple open violations from the April 2024 inspection that require attention, including problems with the roof leaking at various ceiling locations and defective plastered surfaces in several rooms.

Additional complaints from March 2024 included both emergency and non-emergency issues related to ceiling conditions and water leaks. While there were some complaints recorded in 2020 regarding permit access issues, these were not directly related to the building's current condition. The concentration of recent violations (2024) and the presence of multiple open violations as of the latest inspection suggest ongoing maintenance challenges that have required multiple rounds of inspection and violation issuance.
