1711 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11210

1711 Flatbush Avenue is a 3-story, 4-unit residential building located in Flatlands, Brooklyn, owned by Joan Fazziola and constructed in 1920. The building has experienced several significant issues over recent years, with the most immediate concern being a heat and hot water problem reported in late November 2023, which was promptly addressed and closed by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

More concerning is the building's persistent non-compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations recorded in April 2024, March 2023, and February 2022, all stating the owner's failure to file the required annual bedbug report as mandated by HPD rules. Although the owner did submit a bedbug report for the period from November 2019 to October 2020, this reported zero infested units, eradicated units, and re-infested units, which suggests either a lack of issues during that period or potential underreporting.

The building's maintenance history reveals some historical concerns, including a rodent inspection in November 2011 that resulted in a "failed for Other Reasons" designation, though no specific details about the rodent situation were recorded. While the building classification has been changed to "HEREAFTER CONVERTED CLASS A," indicating a transition to permanent residential status, the combination of recent heating system issues and ongoing bedbug reporting violations suggests potential challenges with building maintenance and compliance.
