901 East 223rd Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-story, three-unit residential building at 901 East 223rd Street in Wakefield, owned by Mae Todman and built in 1925, has experienced several maintenance challenges over the past few years, with the most significant issues occurring between 2020 and 2021. The property faced multiple water-related problems, including several water supply complaints and leaks between July 2020 and January 2021, along with associated issues like mold problems, window frame concerns, and both emergency and non-emergency plumbing issues that required attention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). Notably, an inspection in January 2021 revealed multiple violations in the basement apartment (BSMT), including mold conditions, water leaks, and problems with the bathroom ceiling and walls.

The building also had some security and safety concerns, including an open violation from April 2021 regarding an illegal double cylinder key-operated locking device on a second means of egress in the kitchen. More recent history shows some improvement in building conditions, with annual bedbug reports filed consistently from 2021 through 2025 showing zero infestation cases, indicating successful pest management. The most recent violation from March 2023 regarding bedbug reporting requirements appears to be the only outstanding violation on record.

While there were multiple maintenance issues in 2020-2021, documentation suggests that most of these have been addressed, with many complaints resolved through HPD inspections. The building underwent inspections for various issues including plumbing, ventilation, and sanitation conditions, with some violations resulting in necessary repairs and remediation efforts. The property appears to have maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, with no recorded infestations since 2021.
