22 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
22 Halsey Street is a 4-story, 16-unit New Law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Built in 1905 and currently owned by Richard Bramwell, the property has experienced significant heating system challenges over the past two years, particularly during winter months. Between December 2022 and December 2024, there were multiple emergency complaints about heat and hot water issues, with several instances in January 2024 alone.
The building-wide heating problems were documented through both 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints, though some inspections faced access issues. Most recently, in December 2024, violations were recorded in apartment 2C for missing carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, though these were certified as corrected in January 2025. Other notable violations include a January 2024 citation for inadequate heat in apartment 1C, a locked boiler room access issue, and a March 2024 violation regarding bedbug reporting compliance.
The building has undergone regular bedbug inspections since 2019, consistently showing no active infestations or required eradication efforts, with the most recent reports in 2025 indicating zero infested units. Rat activity has been monitored through multiple inspections between 2023 and 2025, with some initial inspections showing activity in fall 2023, though recent compliance inspections in 2024 and 2025 showed passing results. The property has also faced various maintenance issues in recent years, including a 2020 citation for defective fire escapes at the 2nd and 4th story levels, a 2021 violation regarding building entrance doors, and a 2024 violation concerning heating system access. While the building has experienced persistent heating system challenges, it has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs and has shown some improvement in recent rodent inspections, passing the most recent inspections in 2024-2025.
