151 Dupont Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

151 Dupont Street is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, built in 1928 and currently owned by David Manheimer. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed in late 2023 indicating building-wide problems, some of which remain unresolved despite multiple inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Other significant maintenance concerns include a slow water leak, electrical power outage, and plumbing issues related to toilets, all classified as non-emergency in November 2023 and closed without violations being issued. The building has a history of safety-related violations, including previously documented issues with fire safety equipment in the cellar, self-closing doors, and window guards. Recent inspections and complaints from 2021-2022 revealed several critical issues, including a defective boiler system in March 2022 that was documented through an Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation, though this appears to have been resolved with a $312 penalty.

The building has been subject to multiple complaints of unauthorized alterations, including illegal conversions and occupancy violations, though inspections often failed to gain access for verification. The property underwent several repairs and maintenance work between 2021-2022, including addressing a mouse infestation in Apartment 1R and various infrastructure repairs. Importantly, the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting history, with no documented infestations in the last three reporting periods (2021-2024), suggesting successful pest management practices.
