2262 85th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11214
2262 85th Street is a 2-story, 4-unit residential building located in Gravesend, owned by Denise Ehrlich and constructed in 1924 as a "New Law Tenement." The building has been subject to recurring Housing Maintenance Code violations since 2021, with open violations in 2024, 2023, 2022, and 2021 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by HPD rules. A significant pattern of compliance issues emerged in 2021 when multiple violations were recorded, including work without a permit and failure to maintain code compliance, particularly at the cellar level where fireproofing materials were reportedly removed, exposing combustible materials.
This led to Environmental Control Board violations in October 2021, with a penalty of $5,000 imposed for failure to comply with a commissioner's order, though records indicate this balance was resolved. The Department of Buildings responded to several complaints regarding the property, including an illegal after-hours work complaint in 2021 (which resulted in a stop work order) and a work without a permit complaint in late 2020 (where the inspector was unable to gain access).
The building's permit history shows legitimate activity in 2019, with two permits issued on July 1 and May 14 for work classified under PL (possibly plumbing) and EW (possibly electrical or exterior work) respectively. A more recent complaint from 2024 regarding an illegal curb cut/driveway was investigated in January 2025 and found to have no violation warrant at the time of inspection. While some historical violations have been resolved, the building continues to have open bedbug report filing violations as of 2024, indicating ongoing compliance issues with basic housing maintenance requirements.
