1849 Loring Place South, Bronx, NY 10453

1849 Loring Place South is a two-family residential building located in the Morris Heights neighborhood of the Bronx. Owned by Mariette Lowe-bryan, this two-story structure was built in 1920 and contains two units. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, most notably a serious heating and hot water system failure in October 2018 that affected both the entire building and individual apartments, resulting in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations.

These infractions, classified as Class C, specifically cited inadequate heat supply and hot water problems in the first-floor apartment. Prior to these issues, multiple maintenance violations were recorded in September 2018 regarding defective plastered surfaces and painting requirements in various rooms of the same apartment, which were classified as Class B violations. The property has shown some concerning patterns in pest management, particularly from 2018 through 2019, when there were multiple instances of rat activity requiring bait application and compliance checks.

However, more recent records indicate improved conditions, with the most recent rodent inspections in 2023, 2024, and 2025 all passing without incident. Notably, there was no evidence of bedbug infestations during the 2020-2021 reporting period, and the building's condition appears to have stabilized in recent years. While the property experienced significant maintenance challenges in 2018, the subsequent years show improved compliance with housing standards, though the history of heating system issues and early pest problems may still be of interest to prospective tenants.
