918 Freeman Street, Bronx, NY 10459

918 Freeman Street is a 5-story, 10-unit residential building constructed in 1907, currently owned by Michelle Fox. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past year, with the most recent problems emerging in April 2025, including slow water leaks, window pane issues, and flooring problems - the latter resulting in violations being issued. In March 2025, multiple complaints were investigated, revealing problems with the floor, ceiling, and plumbing, as well as a sewage-related issue.

The building faced significant heat and hot water system challenges in late December 2024, affecting both the 4B and 5B apartments, with violations noted regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply, along with concerns about access to the heating system's boiler room. Safety concerns were highlighted in 2024-2025 with potential lead-based paint issues identified during an April 2025 inspection. The building's maintenance history shows a mixture of resolved and ongoing issues, with particular attention needed to address recurring water-related problems, as evidenced by multiple water leak complaints in both March and April 2025.

February 2025 brought electrical concerns with a power outage affecting the entire building. The property has passed recent rodent inspections (2022-2025), though there were some failures noted in 2018 inspections. While pest control has been generally effective, with no bedbug reports in the past three years (2021-2024), the building's age and history suggest ongoing maintenance will be a critical factor for resident comfort. Three active Local Law 188 compliance inspections were noted in 2024, indicating potential issues with building maintenance standards or access concerns for inspections.
