11 Hoyt Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201

11 Hoyt Street is a 52-story residential building located in Downtown Brooklyn, containing 480 units and completed in 2018. The building is currently facing several significant maintenance and compliance issues that may impact resident quality of life. Most notably, there are recurring concerns about sewage odors affecting indoor air quality, with documented complaints in both 2023 and 2021.

The property has active Local Law 188/17 compliance inspections as of May 2025, and there is an active Environmental Control Board violation from October 2024 regarding the failure to submit required parking structure inspection reports, carrying a penalty of $2,500. The building has experienced various inspection and compliance challenges since its construction, including multiple incidents where inspectors were unable to gain access during required inspections in 2024, and a history of violations related to immediately hazardous conditions that were ultimately dismissed. Water-related issues were documented in 2020 with a heavy flow leak complaint, and while there was one documented case of bedbug infestation in 2021-2022, subsequent annual reports from 2022-2024 show zero infested units. The property underwent several permit issuances between 2020-2021 for various work types, including electrical and plumbing, suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts.

Historical pest control records indicate previous rodent activity in 2013 and 2019, though both instances passed subsequent compliance inspections. The building's documented history shows a pattern of compliance inspections, some with subpoenas and administrative orders, particularly regarding elevator maintenance (PPN203 AOC). While many violations have been resolved or dismissed, the recurring nature of certain complaints, particularly regarding air quality and inspection access, warrants attention. The most recent violations and inspections suggest ongoing regulatory oversight and compliance requirements that the property management continues to address, though with varying success in meeting access requirements and documentation submissions.
