2773 Briggs Avenue, Bronx, NY 10458

The 42-unit, 5-story tenement building at 2773 Briggs Avenue, owned by Brooke Morgan, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent months. Most notably, in early 2025, there were multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions, including mold and pest infestations, as well as issues with window guard safety. These complaints were either closed without violations or HPD was unable to complete inspections.

The building has also faced recurring heating and hot water issues, with a significant complaint reported in January 2025 during particularly cold weather. Additional concerns were documented regarding various units and common areas, including electrical problems, window damage, and appliance issues, particularly affecting Unit 1A, which experienced multiple violations in late 2024 related to lead paint hazards, roaches, and ceiling repair requirements. The property's maintenance history shows some environmental challenges, with multiple mold and pest complaints over the past year.

However, on the positive side, the building has passed all recent rodent inspections conducted between 2015 and 2024, demonstrating compliance with basic sanitation requirements. The most recent bedbug reporting shows no active infestations between November 2023 and October 2024, though there were two reported cases in the previous year (2022-2023) which were marked as eradicated. The Department of Buildings issued a permit in August 2023, suggesting some ongoing maintenance or improvement work, though specific details of the work were not provided in the data. The building's violation history indicates that while many issues have been addressed through inspections and required repairs, the pattern of recurring maintenance complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort.
