1547 Haight Avenue, Bronx, NY 10461

1547 Haight Avenue is a recently constructed (2005) three-story, three-unit residential building located in the Morris Park neighborhood and currently owned by Wilfredo Ortiz. The building experienced significant heat and hot water-related issues during early 2022, with nine separate emergency complaints filed between January and March 2022, including violations related to inadequate heat supply and hot water exceeding 130 degrees in Apartment 2.

These heating system problems resulted in at least three Housing Maintenance Code violations during 2022, while another violation was documented concerning window guard requirements in Apartment 2. A particular concern was a locked boiler room door violation noted in February 2022, which has reportedly been resolved through subsequent inspections. Since these early 2022 heating system issues, there have been no further heating or hot water complaints, and the building has shown compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, filing four consecutive reports from 2021 through 2024 indicating zero infested units.

The most recent inspections in 2023-2024 have focused on administrative matters, including bedbug reporting compliance, while a 2023 rodent inspection passed successfully. The property has a history of multiple "unable to gain access" responses to inspection requests between 2018-2021, primarily related to illegal conversion and permit inquiries, though these complaints were ultimately closed. The most recent building violation, as of 2024, relates to an annual bedbug report filing requirement from 2022 that remains open.
