990 Freeman Street, Bronx, NY 10459

The three-unit, three-story building at 990 Freeman Street in East Morrisania, owned by Vivian Tran and constructed in 2004, has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly in October 2018, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding water leaks, mold, and paint/plaster damage. These issues primarily affected the second-floor apartment (Apartment 2), with documented problems including heavy water flow affecting ceilings and walls, and multiple instances of slow leaks.

The building did receive several Housing Maintenance Code violations in October 2018, specifically related to water leaks in various areas including the bathroom ceiling and foyer, as well as maintenance issues with the intercom system. While these violations were subsequently closed, they indicate a period of tenant discomfort and maintenance challenges.

More recently, the building has demonstrated improved conditions, with no reported bedbug infestations in the past three years (2022-2025) according to the mandatory bedbug reporting program. The most recent rodent inspections from 2022 showed compliance, following a pattern of passing inspections since 2010, with only one failed inspection in 2016 for "Other Reasons." A 2022 inspection also resulted in a bedbug violation related to annual report filing, though this appears to have been resolved as subsequent years show no infestations. The building had a Certificate of Occupancy complaint filed in August 2018, which was investigated in December 2018 with no violations found.
