Lower East Side walk-up with open hazardous lead orders and heavy commercial air and noise spillover on the block.
A 35-unit Lower East Side walk-up on Delancey Street under head officer Wing Yee. While unit-level complaints remain sparse, open hazardous lead orders and heavy street-level commercial spillover mark the address. Three things to know:
Two open class C hazardous lead violations sit on the record. Two class C hazardous violations were issued in April 2024 for failing to notify occupants, investigate lead hazards, and produce required maintenance records within 45 days. Both remain open on the building's file.
Ground-floor food venting and air-quality complaints hit the surrounding block. 26 food-establishment calls and 15 indoor-air-quality reports were logged within three blocks over the last year. Ground-floor commercial venting and kitchen exhausts frequently bleed air quality and odors up internal risers in these 1920 walk-ups.
Heavy commercial nightlife activity surrounds the three-block radius. Within three blocks of the building, 378 commercial noise calls were logged over the last 12 months — mostly loud music and late-night parties. The nightlife corridor keeps the street active straight through the weekend.
