161 Dupont Street, Brooklyn, NY 11222

161 Dupont Street is a 6-story, 6-unit residential building located in Greenpoint, constructed in 2017 and currently owned by Anna Hjalmarsdottir. The building experienced several maintenance issues in August 2020, with multiple reports of mold (both emergency and non-emergency) and elevator maintenance concerns, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations in these cases.

Between 2020 and 2024, the property received multiple Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with violations documented in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 indicating non-compliance with annual bedbug report filing requirements. In August 2020, multiple violations were noted concerning missing safety and regulatory postings in the building's first-story public hall, including requirements for smoke detector information, carbon monoxide detector requirements, heating system keyholder information, building registration number, gas leak procedures, and a completed certificate of inspection visits. These violations, listed as class A and C, were noted as open and, while the specific resolution status is not provided, their designation suggests ongoing regulatory compliance issues.

The building's certificate of occupancy status came under question in August 2020, though the inspector was unable to gain access during the final inspection. However, all subsequent bedbug reporting periods from 2022-2024 indicate zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units, suggesting improvements in this area. The property had various permits issued between 2018 and 2020 for different types of work, including plumbing, electrical, and new construction activities.
