2275 Morris Avenue, Bronx, NY 10453

2275 Morris Avenue is a 6-story, 30-unit residential building constructed in 1917, currently owned by Ziwei Song and classified as a New Law Tenement. The building has experienced ongoing heat and hot water issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints filed between January and June of that year. Recent inspections have revealed concerns about building safety, with active violations noted regarding a deteriorated parapet wall and the failure to file multiple years of external low-pressure inspections between 2019-2020.

Structural stability concerns have been documented through several shaking/vibrating complaints, with a partial vacate order served in June 2025. Unit 5C appears to be experiencing multiple persistent issues, including recent emergency complaints about window frames, electrical appliances, flooring, and pest control. The building has undergone various inspections and faced multiple violations related to safety equipment, including non-functioning smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in Unit 5C.

Rodent activity has been an ongoing challenge, with inspections in 2023-2025 showing varying results between "Passed" and "Rat Activity." While the building has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in recent years, the persistent nature of heat, maintenance, and structural concerns presents notable challenges for residents. Recent emergency repairs were addressed through Housing Maintenance Code complaints in June 2025, including issues with windows, flooring, plumbing, and pest control, though many of these complaints were closed without thorough inspection access. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance, with many complaints requiring multiple reports before resolution.
