11 Schermerhorn Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
11 Schermerhorn Street is a 6-story, 29-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1914, currently owned by Alex Kalajian. The building has experienced several significant safety-related issues in recent years, most notably two open Class C violations from December 2021 related to lead-based paint hazard notification and record-keeping requirements (involving BMT apartments), and a Class A safety violation from December 2021 regarding a broken window guard, though this was subsequently closed with no violations found. The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug management, with annual reports filed since 2019 showing zero infested units in the most recent 2025 filing period.
Rodent inspections conducted between 2013 and 2025 have all resulted in passing grades. Recent inspections and complaints have shown generally good outcomes, with no violations found during multiple tenant safety inspections in 2023 and 2024. However, there is one active DOB violation as of 2023 regarding the failure to file the 2020 external low-pressure inspection report.
The building has undergone several permitted work projects in recent years, including electrical and plumbing work, with permits issued in 2018, 2019, and 2020. Two complaints filed in 2024 regarding work without a permit and sidewalk shed issues were closed with no violations warranted. Historical records from 2019 show some lapses in communication around tenant protection plans and construction rights, but these issues were resolved. The property has maintained regular compliance with housing maintenance codes, though there have been occasional missed deadlines for filing certain reports or notifications, particularly regarding lead paint and bedbug documentation.
