Questions about this building
Does 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx have open violations?
Yes. 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx had 56 open violations on September 26, 2026: 44 from HPD and 12 from OATH/ECB. 19 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.
Is 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 19 open Class C, with 3 certifications filed and 5 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 26, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.
When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 12 Class C violations: 10 by the original certify-by date, 2 after it. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.
Does 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx have an OATH hearing coming up?
Yes. 4 hearings scheduled on DOB summonses, the first on October 16, 2026. DOB summonses are heard at OATH, the city's hearings office, and OATH can move a hearing to a later date. When nobody shows up, the summons is decided by default, the costliest way one ends.
Does 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx have active DOB violations?
Yes. 25 active DOB violations. The newest was issued April 18, 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 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx?
Yes. 4 DOB complaints in the last 12 months. The newest was filed August 11, 2026. 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.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx marked completed?
Yes. 6 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 28, 2023, awarded for $19,723 in total. The most recent of the 6, a heat and hot water order, was opened February 21, 2025. 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.
Is 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx covered by Local Law 97?
Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered under Article 321, the path for certain affordable housing and houses of worship (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.
Is 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx rent stabilized?
The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.
When was 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx built?
The city's record gives 1941 as the year 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator apartment building with 6 floors.
How many apartments does 2255 Morris Avenue, Bronx have?
The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 43 residential units at 2255 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 OATH hearing dates, DOB violations, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list 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 page for this building is linked above.
