Questions about this building

Does 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn have open violations?

Yes. 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn had 40 open violations on October 10, 2026: 39 from HPD and 1 from OATH/ECB. 13 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 7 years, since January 25, 2019.

Is 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn getting better or worse?

Certifications are being filed faster than new violations come in. 19 certifications filed against 5 new Class C in the last 180 days. That window ends October 10, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 23 Class C violations, all 23 by the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Has 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn been in housing court?

Yes. 1 housing court case here, opened in 2019. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Has DOB received complaints about 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn?

Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. It was filed June 15, 2026. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

When was the boiler at 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn last inspected?

On March 25, 2026. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

When did 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn last file its bedbug report?

On June 19, 2026, for the year to October 31, 2025. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

When was 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn built?

The city's record gives 1905 as the year 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up building with 4 floors.

How many apartments does 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 16 residential units at 1585 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, HPD's housing court cases, DOB complaints, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
