1028 East 223rd Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-unit residential building at 1028 East 223rd Street in Wakefield, owned by Patrick Constantine, has exhibited a concerning pattern of bedbug reporting compliance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there are four consecutive open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2021 through 2024, all citing the owner's failure to file the required annual bedbug reports with the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

These ongoing violations, which carry risks to resident comfort and safety, suggest a persistent disregard for mandatory pest management protocol compliance. Additionally, there are two significant incidents related to unauthorized construction work at the property in 2019, when illegal construction of steel and wood frame structures in the rear yard was reported.

This violation, which resulted in an active Environmental Control Board penalty of $500, prompted a full stop work order on October 10, 2019, indicating enforcement action due to unauthorized construction activity beyond approved plans and permits. While this construction-related violation technically falls outside the three-year window of available data, it represents a historical instance of code noncompliance at the property that prospective residents should be aware of.
