924 East 226th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-story, five-unit New Law Tenement building at 924 East 226th Street in Wakefield, owned by Christopher Aldridge, has experienced several notable issues over the past few years. The most significant recurring problem has been related to heating and hot water, with two documented complaints in recent years: one in January 2023 affecting a specific apartment and an earlier incident in February 2019 involving the entire building. While both complaints were addressed and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), the heating system appears to require ongoing attention.

Of particular importance to resident comfort has been the building's consistent bedbug reporting compliance. From 2021 through 2024, the property has maintained a clean record with no recorded infestations, as verified through five consecutive Bedbug Reports showing zero infested dwelling units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units. However, the building did receive four Class A violations between 2021 and 2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though all these violations have been closed.

This pattern of violations suggests some administrative oversight issues, even as the actual pest control situation appears to be effectively managed. While the heating system continues to show vulnerabilities, the property has maintained a relatively stable environment otherwise, with no other significant complaints or violations on record. The most recent bedbug report filing in December 2024 confirms continued compliance in this area, showing effective management of pest control despite the earlier reporting violations.
