Augrented Insights Report for 2255 Morris Avenue

2255 Morris Avenue is a 43-unit, 6-story residential building constructed in 1941, currently owned by Yuberis Sosa. The building has experienced persistent heating and water supply issues in early 2025, with multiple complaints between January and April 2025 regarding inadequate heat and hot water affecting both individual apartments and the entire building. Recent months have seen continued infrastructure challenges, including unsanitary conditions related to pet waste (June 2025) and plumbing issues.

The building's elevator system has been a significant concern throughout 2024-2025, with multiple violations and complaints about its inoperability, including an active ECB violation from July 2024 imposing a penalty of $3,125 for being the only elevator out of service in a multiple dwelling, affecting numerous tenants. Structural and safety issues have been documented, including an active Class C violation from December 2024 regarding water leaks, pest infestations, and various safety system deficiencies in Apartment 4B. The building's exterior and structural maintenance has raised concerns, with multiple ECB violations noting masonry cracks, bulging masonry, and deteriorated lintels.

There have been recurring rodent activity reports throughout 2024-2025, with inspections showing variable compliance results. The property has also faced administrative challenges, including multiple violations for failure to file required inspections and certifications related to energy efficiency and elevator maintenance. While these violations have mostly been marked as "closed," several remain active, including issues with building facade maintenance and emergency work orders from early 2024. The most recent rodent inspection in June 2025 resulted in a failed inspection for unspecified reasons, suggesting ongoing pest control challenges.
