756 East 234th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The three-story, three-unit building at 756 East 234th Street in Wakefield, owned by Cain Earna, has experienced several concerning issues over recent years, with the most recent cluster of problems occurring in May 2024. During this period, multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions (including mold and pests) and safety concerns (including broken window guards and carbon monoxide detector issues), though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development found no violations.

The building currently has open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022-2024 related to failure to file annual bedbug reports, and these violations remain active with no certification of correction on file. Historical records from 2019-2020 show additional structural concerns, particularly involving the building's chimney, which was cited for disrepair, with cracks and missing masonry documented in multiple Environmental Control Board violations. While these were initially penalized, the violations have an "ACTIVE" status as of the most recent updates.

The property had undergone a bedbug infestation period from November 2019 to October 2020, after which the owner reported no further infestations or re-infestations through the required reporting process. Two notable complaints were filed in late 2019 regarding illegal curb cut/driveway modifications and building stability concerns, though the former was dismissed and the latter led to an Oath Violation being served. The building and its associated systems appear to require ongoing monitoring, particularly regarding the chimney condition and adherence to bedbug reporting requirements.
