1063 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

1063 Bedford Avenue is a four-story, 14-unit Old Law Tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Alexander Horn. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with particular attention needed on plumbing and rodent control.

The most recent plumbing issue reported in June 2024 was resolved within three days, while there have been multiple rodent inspections showing inconsistent results - most recently passing in July 2025, but showing rat activity in January 2025 and December 2022. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no infestations reported in the past five years according to the official Bedbug Reporting system.

The property has faced recurring issues with its food establishment, as evidenced by multiple Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) interventions between 2023 and 2025, including two food poisoning complaints in 2025 and 2023, though both were determined to be isolated incidents. The building's maintenance history shows attention to habitability problems, with the most notable cluster of violations occurring in 2018-2019 in Apartment 4D, including issues with hot water, gas supply, and heating system access, all of which were subsequently resolved. The building's infrastructure has been subject to regular scrutiny, including a construction enforcement inspection in 2019 that found no violations, and periodic inspections that generally demonstrate compliance with health and safety regulations, despite the recurring rodent issues that suggest persistent challenges with building maintenance.
