1972 Morris Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453
The three-story, four-unit building at 1972 Morris Avenue in Mount Hope, owned by Fritz Jean, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since 2020. The most significant concerns relate to heating and hot water systems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded between 2020 and 2022 affecting both apartments and the entire building.
In 2021, there were additional plumbing issues, including water supply problems and a bathtub/shower complaint, while 2022 saw a notable water leak incident. The building has also faced rodent control challenges, with multiple rat activity reports and bait applications recorded between 2024 and 2025, though a recent July 2025 inspection passed. Recent inspections have revealed several open violations, including a Class A violation as of April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, and a Class C violation concerning defective self-closing doors in Apartment 2 from January 2024.
Previous violations from 2022 in Apartment 2 included issues with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and various maintenance requirements, though many of these were subsequently closed. The building's history includes regular bedbug reporting from 2018 through 2023, consistently showing zero infested dwelling units, and a Department of Buildings complaint from 2018 was closed with no violations found. While the building has had ongoing maintenance issues, recent rodent control efforts appear to be continuing, with multiple bait applications in early 2024, and the most recent rodent inspection in July 2025 showing no violations.
