The building carries zero open violations, but heavy surrounding bar traffic and retail air signals define the block.
The 27-unit building has zero open housing-code violations, but it sits on an active Lower East Side commercial stretch. While internal maintenance complaints are low, neighborhood commercial operations bring distinct sound and air signals right to the doorstep. Three things to know:
Late-night bar and party noise dominates the immediate surroundings. 924 commercial noise calls within three blocks over the last 12 months, with 641 specifically citing loud music and parties. Another 351 street noise complaints show up in the same area. The block stays active deep into the night.
Surrounding ground-floor dining brings steady kitchen exhaust and air quality complaints. 11 food establishment complaints and 9 indoor air quality reports were logged within three blocks over the past year. Exhaust, cooking odors, and street-level air friction bleed upward from nearby retail spaces on this stretch.
A brief cluster of building-wide heat complaints landed last autumn. Three heat and hot water complaints were logged for the entire building between October and November 2025. All three calls were resolved and closed, but they show a temporary seasonal bump during the fall transition.
