848 Freeman Street, Bronx, NY 10459
The three-unit building at 848 Freeman Street in Morrisania, owned by Gil Broitman and built in 1901, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, particularly in 2025. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints throughout March 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with reports indicating restoration of services during inspection attempts. The building has also faced persistent electrical and safety concerns, including two emergency electrical complaints (one for wiring issues and another for no lighting) in January 2025, as well as a slow water leak complaint in March 2025 that inspectors were unable to access.
Additional issues documented in early 2025 include sanitary violations related to pests, with inspections revealing violations requiring correction, and multiple rodent activity inspections showing consistent rat activity throughout 2023-2024, with bait applied during several inspections. The building has had some infrastructure maintenance issues as evidenced by various Housing Maintenance Code violations in 2023-2024. These include violations related to self-closing doors at both the building entrance and vestibule, elevator door issues, and problems with windows and radiators in Apartment 2.
The property has been responsive to certain issues, with several violations being certified as corrected, including fire retardant material repairs in the boiler room completed in July 2023. The building's bedbug reporting history from 2022-2024 shows no recorded infestations, with all reported units being listed as free from these pests. However, the recent combination of heat, electrical, and pest-related violations suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The most recent boiler-related violation in April 2025 resulted in an Oath Violation being served.
