53 Albany Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11213
This three-story, three-unit building at 53 Albany Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Lisa Duke, was constructed in 2009 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there have been two emergency heat and hot water complaints in 2024 and 2025 that were closed due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) being unable to gain access to inspect the reported conditions.
While the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and filed its 2023-2024 report showing no infested units, it has received four consecutive violations between 2021 and 2024 for failing to file annual bedbug reports in accordance with HPD rules, though these violations are now considered closed. The building's rodent inspection history is generally positive, with three passed inspections in 2020, 2022, and 2024.
However, there was one instance of rat activity recorded in November 2022, which stands in contrast to the otherwise clean record. The most recent inspection, conducted in July 2025, again passed. While the building has faced recurring access issues during HPD inspections, the overall maintenance record shows improvement in some areas, such as rodent control, though the heat and hot water complaints indicate ongoing systems challenges that require attention.
