The two-family house at 993 Pierce Avenue in Morris Park, owned by James Cossa, has a history of maintenance and sanitation issues, particularly noted during a cluster of complaints in July 2020. During this period, multiple complaints were filed and subsequently addressed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including concerns about plumbing (basin/sink), flooring, paint/plaster (walls), unsanitary conditions (mold), and pest infestations. All these issues were closed after HPD verified corrections, though the documentation suggests there may have been multiple simultaneous problems that required attention.
The property has also undergone several rodent inspections, with the most recent in January 2023 resulting in a passing grade, indicating improved conditions. However, there were multiple compliance failures in 2016 and 2014, suggesting ongoing challenges with pest control in previous years. The building has been standing since 1935, and despite the documented issues from 2020, the most recent rodent inspection pass indicates some progress in maintenance. The property's two units share a history of similar maintenance issues, as evidenced by the simultaneous complaints filed in 2020, and the building's age suggests typical wear and tear that may require ongoing management attention.
