Recent Swift observations of the black hole X-ray transient MAXI J1659-152 during the decay from its 2010 outburst showed evidence for a marked X-ray re-brightening (ATel #3339). On behalf of a larger collaboration, we report on quasi-simultaneous radio and X-ray observations of the source during the decay and subsequent re-brightening, using the EVLA and Chandra, respectively. These observations are part of a longer-term monitoring campaign tailored to follow the X-ray and radio decay of the source. On 2011 April 18, Yang & Wijnands (ATel #3298) reported an unabsorbed X-ray flux of 2.2e-13 erg cm-2 s-1 (0.5-10 keV).
