80 Clinton Place, Bronx, NY 10453

80 Clinton Place, a 5-story, 26-unit residential building constructed in 2023 and owned by Joel Mittelman, has experienced several maintenance issues since its opening. The most pressing recent concerns involve emergency situations, including problems with doors/windows (evidenced by multiple 311 service requests and housing maintenance code complaints), safety concerns regarding a window guard, and electrical issues with lighting.

During 2025, there were multiple complaints about insufficient access for HPD inspections, particularly regarding electrical issues, pest problems, paint/plaster concerns, and water leaks. Notably, in March 2025, there were violations issued related to garbage/recycling storage that required correction by the property owner. Prior to the building's opening, there were several construction-related issues documented in 2023, including complaints about construction safety compliance, some of which resulted in Stop Work Orders that were eventually rescinded.

The property has undergone routine construction safety sweeps throughout 2023-2024, with most inspections finding no violations. Encouragingly, there have been no reported bedbug infestations in the past two annual reporting periods (2024 and 2025), and all documented unit count figures for infestation, eradication, and re-infestation are at zero. The building, being newly constructed, represents the latest in housing design but has experienced typical early occupancy issues, particularly related to construction punch-list items and system calibrations.
