6816 Owls Head Court, Brooklyn, NY 11220

The 6-unit, 3-story building at 6816 Owls Head Court in Bay Ridge, owned by Cretilini & Mitikriti, LLC, was constructed in 1946 and currently shows several areas of concern as of 2025. Most pressing are the water quality issues documented through multiple 311 complaints, with at least 6 heat and hot water complaints between late 2021 and early 2020, some of which occurred when HPD was unable to gain access to conduct inspections.

The building has also faced significant safety concerns, particularly in late 2022, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding fire escape issues, carbon monoxide detectors, broken window guards, and door problems - all of which were marked as resolved. Structural maintenance has been a recurring theme, with current open violations from 2024 indicating problems with the roof's leak at the third-story bulkhead, various issues with the self-closing vestibule door on the first story, and problems with the fire-retardant plaster at the third-story bulkhead. The building's external maintenance record shows active violations regarding low-pressure inspection filings dating back to 2018, which remain unresolved as of September 2024.

Earlier concerns about rodent activity were documented through multiple inspection reports between 2017 and 2019, with bait applied in several instances. However, the most recent bedbug reports from 2021, 2023, and 2024 show no infestations or eradications, suggesting successful management of this particular issue. While the building has a history of maintenance and safety issues, with various violations spanning multiple years, there has been some progress in terms of resolving specific complaints and conducting regular safety inspections, including the most recent bedbug reporting showing zero infected units.
