920 East 231st Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 920 East 231st Street in Wakefield, owned by Charly Gali, has a documented history of maintenance and safety concerns since its 1931 construction. Most notably, from December 2021 to January 2022, multiple complaint investigations by HPD could not gain access to inspect reported issues including sewage problems, door and window frame concerns, and intercom system failures, all of which were marked as closed but potentially unresolved.

The building has consistently failed to comply with annual bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in 2021, 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024. Earlier violations from 2019 highlighted unsafe electrical wiring conditions with exposed wires near entrance areas, while 2018 inspections revealed various concerns including accumulation of refuse in the yard, a defective smoke detector in the basement, and blocked fire escape egress - though some of these issues were subsequently closed.

The property has experienced persistent rodent control challenges, as evidenced by multiple failed inspections between 2012 and 2016. In 2016, inspections in April, July, and September all resulted in noncompliance findings, with the only passing inspection occurring in May 2016. The building's complaint and violation history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding compliance with housing maintenance codes and addressing basic safety concerns, though specific recent resolutions are not documented in available records.
