To be more exact, the last block before the adjustment is Block #282239.
After it is found, the difficulty goes up.

As difficulty adjusts itself every 2016 blocks, in case you want to know the other difficulty change dates, you can check the block data yourself.

For example, the next adjustment will happens after block #284255 (=282239+2016) is found.
