2980 Briggs Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458
2980 Briggs Avenue is a 6-story, 55-unit residential building constructed in 1954, currently owned by Bgr Realty LLC and located in the Norwood neighborhood. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent months, with significant problems including multiple heat and hot water outages (January through February 2025), power outages (March 2025), and the presence of mold (May 2025) - though no violations were found during inspections for these complaints.
More concerning are two active Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) complaints from August 2024 and November 2024 regarding construction lead dust in common areas. The building has a history of pest problems, particularly in Apartment 4B, with violations issued in August 2024 for mouse and roach infestations, though these violations were certified as corrected by October 2024. The property has faced recurring elevator service issues, with complaints filed in 2022, 2023, and most recently in May 2025, though inspections found no violations.
Building systems have shown other signs of concern, including two active violations related to the failure to submit required technical reports and display energy efficiency scores as per city regulations. While the building has shown some improvement in pest management, with no bedbug reports since 2022 and recent rodent inspections in May 2024 and July 2023 passing, the recurring pattern of heat, water, and electrical issues throughout 2024-2025 suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges. The building is currently compliant with most housing maintenance codes, though there are open violations regarding fire door self-closing mechanisms as of December 2024.
