951 East 223rd Street, Bronx, NY 10466
This 3-unit, 2-story building at 951 East 223rd Street in Wakefield, owned by Ashana Singh and built in 1925, has a significant and concerning history of maintenance issues and violations, particularly in recent years. Most notably, there are currently four open violations from October 2024 regarding illegal modifications, including an unpermitted conversion to a 4-unit building, illegal cellar apartment conversion, and illegal gas range installation, with associated fines totaling $6,250. The building has experienced persistent water-related problems, with multiple emergency complaints about water leaks and sewage issues reported in 2025-2024, all of which resulted in incomplete HPD inspections.
Previous concerns include pest infestations (2022-2023), mold, and various sanitary conditions. The property also shows regulatory non-compliance regarding lead-based paint management, with open violations from late 2022 requiring documentation for Apartment 2A and Unit 2B. While bedbug reports for 2023-2024 show no infestations, the building's overall maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with upkeep and compliance.
The building has a documented history of access issues during inspections, with at least three significant instances of inspectors being unable to gain access to investigate complaints (including during the 2018 illegal plumbing work complaint and the 2024 complaint about the illegal cellar conversion). The property was previously cited for safety concerns related to smoke detectors in 2022, though no violations were ultimately issued. Despite multiple HPD and DOB complaints and investigations, many complaints were closed without violations being issued, though this may also reflect inspection access issues rather than resolution of the underlying problems. The building appears to be operating under potentially illegal conditions, with multiple open violations regarding unauthorized modifications and occupancy changes, while recent sewage and water issues indicate ongoing maintenance challenges.
