1039 East 226th Street, Bronx

A 1950 single-family house with long-standing family title history, sitting on a street marked by active driveway and curb friction.

A single-family townhouse in Eastchester built in 1950, sitting on a residential block near East 226th Street. Housing code enforcement files for the building itself lack sufficient recent data, so the local picture rests on financial filings and three-block street activity. Three things to know:

Decades of family ownership on the deed, paired with recent lender filings. Deed transfers show title consolidating under family hands decades ago, with a mortgage filing recorded in April 2024 involving a lender.

Driveway access and curb space are major friction points on surrounding streets. Within three blocks, callers logged 100 blocked-driveway calls and 100 illegal-parking reports over the past year. Driveway complaints stem mostly from total access loss, while parking calls focus heavily on blocked sidewalks.

Surrounding commercial food spots generate periodic odor and exhaust calls. Five food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks over the past year. Nearby kitchen venting and food operations can push odors into surrounding residential spaces during prep hours.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• Residential noise calls reached 48 within three blocks over the last year, mostly for loud music and parties.
• Sewer and water maintenance reports pop up periodically across the immediate three-block radius.
