928 East 223rd Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-unit, two-story building at 928 East 223rd Street in Wakefield, owned by Victor Moczo and constructed in 1920, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues over the past four years. Most notably, there are three open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2022, 2023, and 2024 inspections that remain unresolved as of July 2025.

In 2021, the building faced multiple water-related problems, including slow leaks and bathtub/shower issues that the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to inspect properly. The second floor apartment (2F) has been subject to particular scrutiny, with documented lead paint violations in windows and doors requiring specific abatement procedures to protect resident safety.

Recent complaints from August 2022 involved various concerns including mold, electrical issues, and ceiling problems, though these were closed after inspections found no violations. Of particular concern is the open lead paint violation from July 2021 requiring correction of both peeling paint and lead hazard conditions, along with a 2021 violation specifying the need for bathroom ceiling repainting. While some previous violations have been resolved, the presence of open bedbug reporting violations and unresolved lead paint remediation issues raises ongoing concerns about the building's maintenance and habitability standards.
