1059 Morris Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The three-unit, two-story building at 1059 Morris Avenue in Concourse Village, owned by Dele Aguaze and constructed in 1905, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, from 2024 onward, there have been repeated safety concerns regarding smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and a broken window guard, though inspections did not result in violations. The building has also faced persistent pest problems, with a notable infestation in Apartment 1 documented in 2021 that remains as an open violation as of 2024.
Rodent activity has been a recurring issue, with multiple inspections in 2024 and 2025 showing continued presence, including recent findings of rat activity in both April and June 2025. The building's maintenance history includes various appliance and sanitary condition complaints in 2019, including issues with a refrigerator and mold, as well as a heat and hot water complaint affecting the entire building that was reportedly resolved during the inspection. While there were multiple bedbug-related violations recorded between 2019 and 2024, the most recent report from June 2024 indicates no current infestation, with a filing period showing zero units affected. The property has undergone regular inspections, with some compliance inspections showing rat activity, though there have been several "passed" inspections during the recent period.
The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues, particularly regarding safety equipment, pest control, and rodent activity. Notable events include multiple bedbug violation notices between 2021-2024, ongoing rodent activity as documented in recent inspections, and various emergency safety complaints in 2024 that were addressed but distinguished by the lack of formal violations. The most recent bedbug report from June 2024 suggests a potential improvement in this specific area, while the current rodent inspection results indicate an ongoing challenge in maintaining pest control. The property also had some structural concerns documented in 2019, including a broken glass pane at the entrance door, though these issues appear to have been addressed.
