Is 123 West 197 Street, Bronx getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 14 open Class C, with nothing filed or new in the last 180 days. That window ends September 26, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

Is an HPD vacate order in effect at 123 West 197 Street, Bronx?

Yes. HPD's vacate order for part of the building has been in effect since August 19, 2015. 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 HPD Online shows whether an order has been rescinded since.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 123 West 197 Street, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 5 active DOB violations. The newest was issued January 20, 2021. 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.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 123 West 197 Street, Bronx marked completed?

Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 28, 2023, awarded for $7,000 in total. The most recent of the 2, a general construction order, was opened March 24, 2025. 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 123 West 197 Street, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1920 as the year 123 West 197 Street, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a two-family dwelling with 2 floors.

How many apartments does 123 West 197 Street, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 2 residential units at 123 West 197 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 emergency repair orders and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 26, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own records are the authority on what is open today.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus HPD vacate orders, DOB violations, HPD emergency repair orders 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.
