810 Ritter Place, Bronx, NY 10459

The 5-story, 21-unit tenement building at 810 Ritter Place in Morrisania, built in 1910, has experienced persistent heat and hot water issues throughout 2024 and into 2025, with multiple emergency complaints recorded through 311 services between February 2024 and March 2025. These complaints, which affected the entire building, were typically resolved quickly, often within one to two days, though they represent a significant pattern of recurring infrastructure problems.

The building underwent a noteworthy period of violations and required repairs throughout 2023-2024, particularly in Apartment 3A, where issues included defective doors, peeling paint, plumbing problems, and safety device deficiencies (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors). Other building-wide concerns have included door and window issues, with significant attention needed for door frames and related hardware in multiple instances. More positively, the building has experienced no documented bedbug infestations since 2019, with all annual reports showing zero affected units, and rodent inspections have shown improvement over time, with the most recent inspection in 2022 passing.

A single elevator complaint from July 2023 was investigated and found to have no violations at the time of inspection in October 2023. The property has been through various repairs and maintenance checks, with most violations being addressed and closed promptly, though some, particularly related to heat and hot water, continue to recur. The building's management, under owner Jose Troncoso, has generally responded to violations and complaints, with many issues being resolved within the standard timeframes established by city regulations.
