Is 864 East 221 Street, Bronx getting better or worse?

New violations are coming in faster than certifications are filed. 30 new Class C against 15 certifications filed in the last 180 days. That window ends September 27, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 864 East 221 Street, Bronx?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 48 Class C violations: 44 by the original certify-by date, 4 after it. HPD now marks 1 of them False Certification. 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 864 East 221 Street, Bronx?

Yes. HPD's vacate order for part of the building has been in effect since November 12, 2024. Reason on the order: illegal occupancy. A vacate order requires all or part of a building to be emptied for the reason on the order, and it stays in effect until HPD rescinds it. HPD Online shows whether an order has been rescinded since.

Does 864 East 221 Street, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 5 active DOB violations, most of them for boiler filings under Local Law 62/91. The newest was issued March 16, 2022. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Is 864 East 221 Street, Bronx in housing court?

Yes. 1 open housing court case, opened February 27, 2023. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 864 East 221 Street, Bronx?

Yes. 2 DOB complaints, all of them conversion complaints, in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed April 6, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 864 East 221 Street, Bronx marked completed?

Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 29, 2023: a general construction order, opened August 4, 2025, awarded for $680. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

When was the boiler at 864 East 221 Street, Bronx last inspected?

How many apartments does 864 East 221 Street, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 13 residential units at 864 East 221 Street, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on HPD vacate orders, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus HPD vacate orders, DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
