1220 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

The three-story, three-unit building at 1220 Halsey Street in Bushwick, owned by Justin Homapour and built in 1920, has experienced several notable issues over recent years, though many have been resolved. The most significant recent violation involves an active Environmental Control Board (ECB) violation from November 2024 regarding unauthorized construction of a metal deck and modified fire escape at the rear of the building, with a penalty of $1,250.

Between late 2023 and early 2024, multiple safety-related violations were addressed, including issues with a fire escape door lock, an unauthorized padlockable slide bolt in the public hall, and an accumulation of debris in the basement. The building's maintenance history shows recurring heat and hot water issues, with a notable complaint in September 2021 affecting the entire building, though these matters were subsequently closed. The property has demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, with no reported infestations in recent filing periods through 2025.

Rodent inspections from 2022 through 2025 have consistently passed, indicating effective pest management. While there have been various violations in the past related to building safety and maintenance, most have been resolved, including previous ECB violations from 2018 regarding occupancy issues. The building's bedbug and rodent inspection records suggest improved conditions in recent years, though the active ECB violation from late 2024 represents the most significant current concern affecting resident safety.
