202 Hull Street, Brooklyn, NY 11233

202 Hull Street is a six-unit, three-story New Law Tenement building constructed in 1910 in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, currently owned by Steven Kashanian. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most recent concerns primarily involving pest problems. Two service requests in 2025 and 2024 regarding unsanitary conditions related to pests were filed, though inspectors were unable to gain access for proper evaluation.

The building has a documented history of heat and hot water issues, particularly in late 2022, when multiple emergency complaints were filed for the entire building, resulting in violations for inadequate heat supply and hot water temperature problems. Additional historical concerns include a power outage in 2020 that resulted in violations, and an inability to gain access for inspections regarding water leak and no lighting complaints. The property has maintained an active bedbug reporting record from 2020 through 2024, with no reported infestations during the past four filing periods.

Recent building inspections have shown some improvement, with a September 2024 inspection passing for rodent activity, following an August 2024 initial inspection that noted rat activity. However, there are currently four active violations on record as of June 2023 for failure to file external low-pressure inspections between 2018 and 2021. Various structural and safety violations have been addressed in the past, including requirements for repairs to the roof, public hall ceilings, and fire escape egress obstructions, all of which were eventually certified as completed. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing attention to basic services is needed, while recent inspections indicate some stabilization of pest and rodent issues, with no bedbug infestations reported in the past two years.
