1284 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11237

The 6-unit, 3-story tenement building at 1284 Halsey Street in Bushwick, owned by Fat Dar Realty Corp and constructed in 1914, has recently faced multiple maintenance challenges, particularly evident in April 2025. During this period, the building received several Housing Maintenance Code violations related to wall and ceiling paint/plaster issues, door and window frame problems, flooring concerns, and mold, with inspections confirming these violations. The building has an ongoing pest management issue, as evidenced by multiple recent complaints about unsanitary conditions including pests and mold.

While the most recent rodent inspection in April 2025 showed compliance, previous inspections throughout 2024 and 2023 consistently reported rat activity, requiring bait applications. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the annual filings from 2021 through 2024, though there were violations noted in 2022 and 2024 for failing to file the required annual bedbug report. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of unresolved issues, particularly in 2025, with multiple non-emergency and emergency complaints about various conditions including plumbing problems (sink issues), flooring concerns, and window/frame defects.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) has conducted multiple inspections in response to these complaints, issuing violations and providing timeframes for remediation. While some complaints have been resolved through inspections, many have resulted in active violations requiring correction. The property has undergone regular pest management efforts, as evidenced by multiple baiting operations and inspections, though these have not fully resolved the rodent activity as shown in the inspection results.
