Summary · as of November 9, 2026
83 Shepherd Avenue (Brooklyn, NY 11208; tax lot BBL 3039290029) is a two-family home (building class B2: two-family home, frame (wood)), built around 1910, on a 2,040 sq ft lot zoned R4. City tax records list the owner as KELLEY, WALTER G; per ACRIS, a deed to this owner dated December 7, 2010 lists a price of $460,000. The Department of Finance's final market value for tax year 2027 is $878,000. As of November 9, 2026, NYC Open Data shows no open DOB jobs, no active DOB, DOB NOW safety or ECB violations and no open HPD violations for this lot, but it does show four OATH tickets with an unpaid balance. An unpaid OATH ticket is a fine the city says is still owed. It is counted separately from violations, so this lot has no open violations but is not free of outstanding items. There were six 311 requests in the past 12 months and no HPD complaints since 2019. (Source: NYC Open Data — DOB, HPD, OATH, DOF, DCP and ACRIS datasets — compiled by NYC Property Facts.)
