290 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216
The three-unit, three-story building at 290 Halsey Street in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Kelvin Ward, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years since its 1931 construction. Most recently, in August 2024, there was a complaint regarding mold that was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), though no violations were found, and the case was closed.
The property has a concerning pattern of bedbug reporting violations, with open citations from 2022 to 2024 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required by the Housing Maintenance Code. The building has also dealt with rodent-related issues, with documented sightings in 2020 and 2021, though most recent inspections in 2022 and 2024 passed without violations.
An emergency power outage incident was recorded in October 2019, which was investigated by HPD but resulted in no violations. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that most recent inspections, particularly regarding rodent activity, have resulted in passing grades, suggesting some level of improved compliance in recent years.
