1538 West 11th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11204

The two-story, three-unit New Law Tenement building at 1538 West 11th Street in Bensonhurst, owned by Teresa Braun, has maintained an impressive record regarding pest control, with all bedbug reports between 2019 and 2025 indicating zero infested or eradicated units. The property has undergone regular bedbug reporting as required, with the most recent report filed in July 2025 showing no incidents during the previous reporting period.

While the building's pest control record is exemplary, there is one noteworthy Housing Maintenance Code violation from April 2024 regarding the failure to file the annual bedbug report, though this was eventually closed. Of particular concern are two Department of Buildings complaints from June 2020, both related to illegal conversions and unauthorized work or occupancy changes.

These complaints, which could potentially impact resident safety and building integrity, were marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access – 2nd Final Attempt" on their second inspection dates in February 2021 and June 2020, respectively, meaning the inspector could not verify the reported issues. While the building has had no reported infestations since 2019 and has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, the unresolved nature of these illegal conversion and unauthorized work complaints, coupled with the 2024 bedbug report violation, suggests some areas of regulatory compliance that merit attention.
