4236 Carpenter Avenue

This building has 0 recorded HPD violations, at or below the Wakefield average of 31.0.
The two-family house at 4236 Carpenter Avenue in Wakefield, owned by Erick Gonzalez, is a 2-story building constructed in 1901 that contains three units. The building's documented history reveals several significant maintenance and safety issues in 2018 that warrant attention. Most notably, there was a heat and hot water emergency complaint affecting the entire building in December 2018, though inspection access was not granted to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), resulting in the case being closed without resolution. Earlier that same year, in July, multiple housing maintenance code violations were recorded regarding security and door functionality. These included issues with illegal double cylinder locks at the street entrance and problems with self-closing mechanisms on doors, specifically involving Apartment 2 on the second story. These violations were subsequently certified for correction by July 19, 2018, suggesting they were addressed, though the presence of multiple security-related violations in close succession indicates potential historical concerns about building security.
