A Two Bridges walk-up with clear sewer-backup history and commercial venting signals on the block.
An 18-unit Two Bridges walk-up managed by Ra Cohen & Associates. While code violations are kept clear, the building carries a history of main-line sewer backups and winter heat drops, alongside commercial venting signals nearby. Three things to know:
Repeated sewer backups and stack calls hitting the main line. Nine sewer backup reports hit this address between mid-2025 and early 2026. That includes five separate backup calls over a single two-day stretch, pointing to severe main-line or stack blockage rather than isolated apartment fixtures.
Winter heating complaints concentrated during peak cold snaps. 12 heat and hot water complaints were logged across late 2024 and early 2025, alongside associated radiator plumbing reports. Heating service stabilized for the following season, but cold-snap drops are part of the building's operational history.
Ground-floor commercial food venting and indoor air quality signals nearby. Within three blocks, 35 food-establishment calls and 8 indoor-air-quality reports were logged over the last year. Ground-floor food operations and commercial kitchen exhaust frequently bleed through shared shafts and risers into living spaces above.
