216 Duffield Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

216 Duffield Street is a 23-story Class A residential building constructed in 2007 in Downtown Brooklyn, currently owned by Kin Chung Lam. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most significant being a rodent and pest management concern in December 2022 that remained open until June 2024, and a food establishment complaint involving rodents/insects/garbage that was closed in June 2024.

There have been three documented instances of bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2022, though recent bedbug reports from 2022-2023 indicate zero infested units. Other notable issues include a mold complaint in February 2021 (which resulted in an emergency housing maintenance code complaint), and several violations related to boiler inspection report filings and energy efficiency score displays between 2019 and 2021. The building's maintenance record shows some lapses in compliance with city requirements, including failure to submit required exterior wall examination reports in 2018 and 2021, for which penalties were imposed.

While there have been several Department of Buildings violations and complaints between 2019 and 2022, most have been resolved or dismissed, including issues related to elevator certification and failure to display energy efficiency scores. The building's rodent inspection history shows mixed results, with rat activity noted in January 2021, though a subsequent compliance inspection in February 2021 passed. Recent bedbug reporting periods from 2022-2025 show no current infestations, and the property has maintained its bedbug reporting requirements with zero infested units reported in the last four filings.
