86 16th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11215

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 86 16th Street in Gowanus, owned by Peter Dilis, was constructed in 1931 and has maintained relatively stable living conditions over recent years. The property is currently under observation for rodent-related issues, with a rat sighting recorded in May 2025 leading to a Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection that found violations requiring follow-up inspections.

A previous rodents-related incident occurred in May 2025, though subsequent compliance inspections in July 2025 showed passing results. The building experienced an unsanitary conditions complaint in May 2024 regarding garbage/recycling storage, which was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development but resulted in no violations.

Despite these recent concerns, it's notable that the building has maintained a consistent record of having no bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infestation cases. The property has undergone regular inspection and reporting requirements, passing rodent inspections in 2013 and July 2025, though with some notable exceptions for rat activity in 2025. The building's overall condition appears to be stable, with particular attention needed to address the recent rodent-related issues as indicated by the May 2025 violations, while the lack of bedbug reports over multiple years suggests effective pest management in that regard.
