1180 Forest Avenue, Bronx, NY 10456
The five-story New Law tenement at 1180 Forest Avenue in Morrisania, built in 1927 and containing 33 units, has experienced significant maintenance and housing quality issues in recent years. Most notably, between December 2024 and April 2025, there were multiple simultaneous complaints and violations including water leaks, mold, unsanitary conditions, and various structural deficiencies.
The building has faced recurring problems with moisture and mold, as indicated by multiple HPD complaints in early 2025 and December 2024. Inspection attempts for several complaints in January 2025 were unsuccessful, though a subsequent heat/hot water complaint was resolved quickly in late January 2025. The property has a documented history of rodent activity, with several inspections between 2017-2022 showing rat activity, though inspections in 2018 and 2022 passed.
A notable group of violations was issued in December 2024, including fire escape maintenance and safety concerns, though many previously documented issues were listed as "Closed" by March 2025. The building's recent maintenance history shows a pattern of water-related issues, including both heavy flow and slow leaks, along with problems requiring attention to various building systems including plumbing, flooring, and wall conditions. While the building has maintained a clean record for bedbug infestations since 2021, the frequency and variety of recent complaints suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
