1536 West 11th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

1536 West 11th Street is a two-story, three-unit residential building located in Bensonhurst, constructed in 1930 and classified as a New Law Tenement. The property, currently owned by Chow Man Cheng, has experienced several notable events over the past few years, with a particular pattern of heating issues emerging in late 2021.

Two emergency heat/hot water complaints were filed in November-December 2021, one of which was resolved promptly while the other could not be inspected due to access issues. The building has a concerning history of access issues for inspections, as evidenced by three separate complaints in 2020 regarding potential illegal work and conversion, though these complaints were ultimately closed when inspectors were unable to gain entry despite multiple attempts.

More recently, the building's pest management situation appears stable, with no bedbug infestations reported during the most recent filing period between November 2022 and October 2023, showing zero infested units and successful eradication of any previous infestations. While the heating issues from 2021 were resolved at the time, the pattern of access difficulties for inspections suggests that potential maintenance issues may require careful attention, though the absence of recent heating complaints and pest issues indicates improved conditions in recent years.
