When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 261 East 202 Street, Bronx?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 6 Class C violations: 5 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Is an HPD vacate order in effect at 261 East 202 Street, Bronx?

Yes. HPD's vacate order for the entire building has been in effect since August 22, 2016. Reason on the order: fire damage.
