The building itself keeps a thin municipal record, but surrounding commercial activity and street friction dominate the immediate three blocks.
This 20-unit Chinatown pre-war property carries zero open code violations, but the surrounding streetscape is intense. Heavy commercial noise, active restaurant exhaust, and sidewalk encampments shape the immediate block context. Three things to know:
Late-night commercial noise concentrates heavily around the building. 405 commercial noise calls were logged within three blocks in the last 12 months, driven by 277 reports of loud music and late parties along with 79 for street talking. The concentration reflects the surrounding Chinatown and Lower East Side nightlife.
Restaurant venting and food operations show active friction nearby. 85 food establishment complaints were filed within three blocks over the last year, covering food quality and restaurant exhaust issues. In pre-war brick buildings, ground-level kitchen odors can drift upward through shafts and windows.
Sidewalk encampment complaints cluster on nearby corners. 191 encampment complaints were registered within three blocks in the last 12 months, with calls as recent as September 20, 2026. Sidewalk use and sidewalk density are constant factors on surrounding corners.
