2830 Briggs Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 2830 Briggs Avenue building, a 6-story Class A residential building constructed in 1955 in the Fordham neighborhood, currently has 58 units and is owned by 2830 Briggs Avenue Owners, Inc. The property has faced multiple maintenance challenges in recent years, with a significant cluster of 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints in mid-2025, including issues with window frames, doors, cabinets, walls, and paint/plaster conditions, though all these complaints were closed without violations being found.

More concerning are the active violations from late 2024/early 2025, including a mold emergency and slow water leak issue, ventilation system problems, and multiple instances of unsatisfactory paint/plaster conditions. The building has a history of recurring elevator issues, with multiple complaints between 2021 and 2024 regarding single elevator device service and no alternate service. In late 2024, there were significant issues in apartment 6D including infestation problems (roach and waterbug issues), high water temperature complaints, heating system problems, and a steam leak violation, though these were later closed.

The property has faced challenges with rodent control, as indicated by recent inspections showing rat activity, and is currently dealing with multiple active violations related to critical examination reporting requirements and fire safety systems from 2019-2024. Despite these issues, the building's bedbug reports for the past several years have shown no infestations, and while there are multiple open DOB violations listed, many older violations appear to have been resolved or dismissed. Recent 2025 complaints were largely determined not to violate housing laws, though they indicate ongoing maintenance concerns.
