826 Bay Ridge Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 826 Bay Ridge Avenue in Dyker Heights, constructed in 1926, has experienced several maintenance issues throughout 2022, with most notably concentrated problems in apartment 2R. In January 2022, multiple complaints were filed and subsequently investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including issues with pests, ceiling problems, plumbing (steam pipe/riser), and flooring defects, some of which resulted in violations.

The building was issued several violations in February 2022, including one related to an annual bedbug report requirement (which was later closed in April 2021). In apartment 2R specifically, there were documented issues requiring attention including pest infestation (roaches), flooring problems, water leaks, and multiple ceiling repair needs, though records indicate these violations were certified as corrected by March 2022. The building's recent history shows significant improvement, with no recorded bedbug infestations in the last three annual reports (filing periods 2022-2025), all showing zero infested or erased units.

The last known permitted work from the Department of Buildings was issued in February 2021 for an unspecified job ("EW"), though the specific nature of this work is not detailed in the records. Importantly, there have been no 311 service requests or housing maintenance code complaints reported in the past year (2023-2024), suggesting improved building conditions and maintenance responsiveness. The current ownership structure is through 826 Bay Ridge Ave, LLC, which has been managing the property under the New Law Tenement classification.
