4434 White Plains Road, Bronx, NY 10470

The two-family house at 4434 White Plains Road in Wakefield, owned by Joseph Cerasuolo, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, in 2022, the property faced multiple sanitation and maintenance challenges, including pest infestations, mold problems, and water leaks, with violations issued in March 2022 for pest-related issues and damp spots.

During this period, there were also concerns about paint/plaster conditions affecting both walls and ceilings. The building's safety systems were called into question in June 2021 when emergency complaints were filed regarding non-functional smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, though these issues were eventually addressed.

An active violation exists as of June 2023 related to the failure to file the 2018 external low-pressure inspection, though the Department of Buildings had previously inspected the property in July 2018 regarding plumbing issues and found no violations at that time. The building, constructed in 1920, has been subject to recurring water-related problems, as evidenced by multiple complaints about damp spots and water leaks in both 2021 and 2022.
