A 2009 Google Maps Street View  photo centered with an orange A-marker at the current 278 Division Ave. in the Williamsburg
section of Brooklyn, NY 11211.  My original address was 276 but this was apparently changed and it is now 280, located to the
left (garbage cans in front) on the second floor (see below).
 

 

Previous 1940s Sam, Minnie, Stephen & Michael Stecker family home as of 2022.  The current address is 280 Division Ave, but it was originally 276 Division Avenue according to the 1940 US Census. They painted it a light cream color as shown in this 2022 photo.  It is in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn near the corner of Division and Harrison Avenues, not far from the Williamsburg Bridge.

Here is a copy of the email regarding 274/276 Division Ave on June 8, 2009:
from: drshindler@pesachtikvah.org

Hello Dr. Stecker,
 I'm Dr. Irwin Shindler ,Executive Director of Pesach Tikvah.  We are a mental health facility with 9 programs servicing hundreds of people every
week.  One of our programs, a residence for Retarded women, is housed in a renovated building at 274/276 Division Ave. At some point, the 2 addresses
became one property.  It would be our pleasure to send you pics, and even better if you're ever on the East coast, to show you in person your old home
and the neighborhood you  grew up in.  In addition, I can see from your website that you're a very accomplished person, and would probably be
interested to see how your old house does so much good for such a needy population.  I would love to hear back from you and discuss this further.
