940 East 230th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

940 East 230th Street is a 2-story, 5-unit residential building constructed in 1932 in the Wakefield neighborhood, currently owned by Richard Brown. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, as evidenced by two emergency complaints filed with HPD in February 2019, one of which resulted in no access for inspection, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored by the time of inspection.

More recently, the building has faced challenges with compliance regarding bedbug reporting requirements, receiving four consecutive open violations from 2021 through 2024, all citing the need to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD regulations. In addition to these maintenance issues, there is an active Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violation from March 2018, with a penalty of $6,250 related to non-compliance with a previous Commissioner's Order from June 2017, showing a balance due of the same amount.

This violation, which remains open as of the latest available data, indicates the building management's failure to file an acceptable certificate of correction regarding a prior summons. The property's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with both basic utility maintenance and regulatory compliance, particularly regarding timely reporting of issues affecting resident comfort and safety.
