213 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

213 Halsey Street is a 5-story, 4-unit residential building constructed in 2018 and currently owned by Steven Baker. The property underwent several significant events during its early years, including multiple complaints and violations in 2018-2019 related to construction activities, such as unauthorized work, construction contrary to approved plans, and illegal after-hours work. These issues were generally resolved promptly, with the most serious violation - a Stop Work Order - being rescinded within ten days of issuance in November 2019.

There were also some rodent issues early on, with inspections in 2020 showing rat activity, though subsequent rodent inspections from 2022 onwards have consistently passed. More recent history shows substantial improvement in building maintenance and resident safety. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs since 2021, with the most recent annual reports (2022-2024) showing zero infested or eradicated units.

The property has also undergone regular rodent inspections, passing all assessments from 2023-2025, following some initial challenges with rat activity documented between 2020-2021. The building's bedbug reporting compliance was briefly in question in 2021, resulting in a Class A Housing Maintenance Code violation, but this appears to have been resolved, as subsequent annual filings show no infestations. The most recent complaints and violations data indicates no current issues, suggesting improved management practices and building maintenance since the property's earlier years of operation.
