11 Halsey Street, Brooklyn, NY 11216

11 Halsey Street is an 8-unit, 3-story brick building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, constructed in 1879 and currently owned by Hazel Gayle. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with multiple complaints filed between late 2024 and early 2025, including periods of no heat or hot water affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

Recent infrastructure concerns include radiator problems and window frame issues, with HPD inspections in early 2025 being either incomplete or requiring follow-up requests for access. The building's maintenance history shows persistent heating system challenges, with similar complaints documented from 2021-2024, though many complaints were ultimately closed after tenants reported restoration of services. The property has active violations related to external low-pressure inspection filings from 2018-2024, suggesting non-compliance with required safety inspections.

Past violations included various emergency maintenance needs, such as defective doors, missing smoke detectors, and temperature control issues, with notable violations in Apartment 2A (2022) and Apartment 3B (2021) regarding bathroom plastering, door functionality, and safety equipment. While the building has maintained an active status for bedbug reporting with no infestations recorded between 2021-2025, there have been multiple rodent activity reports, particularly in 2023-2024, though recent inspections in early 2025 showed passing results. The current state of the building suggests ongoing challenges with heating systems and periodic maintenance requirements, while safety equipment concerns have been previously documented and require monitoring for future compliance.
