Augrented Insights Report for 1340 Morris Avenue

1340 Morris Avenue, a 44-unit, 5-story New Law Tenement built in 1923, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with particularly concerning developments in 2025. The building currently faces several active violations regarding its retaining wall, which has been determined to be structurally compromised and potentially dangerous. Three active ECB violations from October 2024 detail issues with the retaining wall, barbed wire hazards, and unpermitted metal beams for wall bracing, collectively carrying penalties totaling $7,250.

Multiple emergency service requests have been filed in 2025 regarding water leaks, flooring issues, unsanitary conditions, and pest problems, with some complaints remaining unresolved due to inspection access issues. The building's systems and infrastructure have raised ongoing concerns, as evidenced by several power outage complaints in 2025 and a series of water leak issues with "heavy flow" descriptors. The property has a documented history of various maintenance challenges, including a significant mold issue in Apartment C5 (2024), where violations were issued for visible mold, bathroom wall problems, and multiple appliance repairs.

Safety concerns were highlighted in 2024 when potted plants on fire escape balconies were found to obstruct egress. Recent inspections indicate fluctuating pest management efficacy, with rodent inspections showing varying results between passed and failed conditions throughout 2023-2025. The building's management has demonstrated partial responsiveness to violations, as indicated by some closed violations, though significant issues remain active as of 2025. Additionally, the property has maintained a record of zero bedbug infestations reported in the past four years, with regular inspections showing no evidence of the pest.
