262 Dahill Road, Brooklyn, NY 11218

262 Dahill Road is a 15-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building located in Kensington, Brooklyn, and managed by 262 Dahill Realty LLC. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years, most notably concerning water-related problems and sanitation concerns. In 2024, apartment 3C encountered multiple violations including mold issues, pest infestations (both roaches and mice), and various plumbing maintenance requirements. There have been recurring water leak complaints throughout 2023-2024, and in early 2025, two new violations were recorded related to unsanitary conditions involving garbage/recycling storage.

The building's infrastructure has also presented challenges, with inspections in 2024 revealing sagging window lintels on multiple floors and missing roof parapet coping above the sidewalk, resulting in a $2,500 violation penalty. Most concerning is the building's recent history of water-related issues, including both heavy and slow leaks reported to HPD, along with a January 2024 heat/hot water complaint. The property has undergone several investigations regarding illegal conversions and hotel room usage, with most recent inspections in late 2024, though access was reportedly denied during some inspections. Additionally, the building's boiler system has faced scrutiny, with a 2023 violation issued for defective/inoperative equipment and another violation for failing to file the annual boiler inspection report in 2019, which remains active.

The building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record, showing no infestations in any of the reported periods from 2019 through 2025, suggesting effective pest management in this regard. However, rodent activity has been documented in 2023, with follow-up inspections showing continued rat activity. Multiple 311 complaints from residents have been logged and investigated, though some inspections were unable to be completed due to access issues. Several health and safety violations have been recorded and subsequently closed, though it appears some issues have required multiple inspections or extended correction times, particularly regarding plumbing and sanitation matters. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and designation as a New Law Tenement may contribute to the maintenance challenges being experienced, though there is no indication of any ongoing construction work or major building modifications in the recent records.
