Is an HPD vacate order in effect at 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx?

Yes. HPD's vacate order for the entire building has been in effect since October 16, 2024. Reason on the order: habitability. A vacate order requires all or part of a building to be emptied for the reason on the order, and it stays in effect until HPD rescinds it. HPD Online shows whether an order has been rescinded since.

Does 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx have active DOB violations?

Yes. 9 active DOB violations, most of them for construction. The newest was issued June 17, 2026. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

Has DOB received complaints about 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx?

Yes. 2 DOB complaints in the last 12 months. The newest was filed December 15, 2025. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 28, 2023: a general construction order, opened January 6, 2026, awarded for $6,430. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

When was 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx built?

The city's record gives 1920 as the year 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a two-family dwelling with 2 floors.

How many apartments does 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 2 residential units at 1517 Morris Avenue, Bronx. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on HPD vacate orders, DOB violations, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 26, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own records are the authority on what is open today.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus HPD vacate orders, DOB violations, DOB complaints, HPD emergency repair orders and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
