This 24-unit Chinatown pre-war rental carries four open housing-code violations, including a Class C citation for roof door self-closing hardware. Recent filings show building-wide heat outages and plumbing repairs, while commercial food and street activity dominate the immediate surroundings. Three things to know:
Building-wide heat calls spiked in late August 2026. Three open calls for building-wide heat and hot water came in back-to-back in late August 2026. Off-season heating reports usually signal major mechanical maintenance or boiler failure before winter.
Surrounding restaurant exhaust and food establishment activity nearby. 38 food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks in the past 12 months, running through late August 2026. Exhaust vents and kitchen risers in this dense commercial pocket can carry kitchen fumes or odors directly into upper-floor units.
Heavy sidewalk blockages and commercial loading outside. 354 illegal parking calls were logged within three blocks over the last year, primarily for sidewalk blockages and permit misuse. Active commercial unloading and curb congestion are constant on this stretch.
