737 East 237th Street, Bronx, NY 10466

The two-family house at 737 East 237th Street in Wakefield, owned by Franklin Bailey and built in 1920, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the last decade. Most concerning are the documented mold problems in apartment 2 that emerged in December 2019, which affected multiple areas including the bathroom, foyer, and various ceilings across several rooms, though these violations were certified as closed by March 2020.

More recent complaints include a slow water leak reported in November 2022, which was inspected by HPD with no violations found. The building has also faced rodent control challenges, with an initial rat activity report in September 2013 and multiple follow-up inspections through 2016 showing continued issues, though the most recent rodent inspection in November 2022 passed successfully.

Apartment 1FL has several open violations from February 2014 related to maintenance issues requiring repair, including problems with the bathroom, kitchen cabinets, various walls and ceilings, and an entrance door, though these may have been addressed since the current records do not indicate recent complaints. The building's only other documented complaint since 2018 was resolved with no violations found, suggesting some improvements in maintenance response.
