1661 11th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215

1661 11th Avenue is a four-story, 27-unit New Law tenement building located in Windsor Terrace and owned by Roger Melzer. The building, constructed in 1927, has had relatively few significant issues over the past few years.

Most recently, in July 2023, there were two separate non-emergency complaints regarding wall paint/plaster and door frame issues, both of which were promptly resolved within a week. In February 2021, there was a complaint about pests, which, following an inspection, resulted in no violations being issued. During the same period, a smoke detector violation was recorded in apartment B7, though this was certified as corrected by March 2021.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with all mandatory reports from 2019 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units, indicating effective pest management. Most notably, there were two complaints about work being done without proper permits in July 2024, but inspections conducted on both occasions found no violations warranted. The building's history suggests regular maintenance issues typical of older structures, but prompt government response and resolution of complaints, particularly the recent work done on wall and door conditions in 2023, demonstrates ongoing attention to building maintenance.
