819 Throgs Neck Expwy, Bronx, NY 10465

The two-family house at 819 Throgs Neck Expressway, owned by Paraskos Maris, has experienced several significant issues since 2019, most notably related to unauthorized modifications and space conversions. In January 2020, multiple violations were documented, including an illegal conversion from a two-family to a four-family dwelling, along with unauthorized construction work involving full-height partitions for bathrooms and bedrooms, plus additional electrical installations.

These violations triggered a series of Environmental Control Board (ECB) violations throughout 2020-2021 for failure to comply with the Commissioner's Orders and to file required Certificates of Correction, though curiously none of these violations incurred any financial penalties based on the records. The building underwent rodent inspections in August 2019 which passed, and a Department of Buildings (DOB) inspection in January 2020 found no violations at the time of inspection, despite the preceding complaint history.

A DOB violation from September 2020 regarding failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous (Class 1) ECB violation was ultimately dismissed in July 2021. The property's documented history suggests a period of significant regulatory scrutiny in 2019-2021, primarily centered around issues of unauthorized modifications and occupancy status, though most of these violations have been resolved or dismissed by 2023.
