A two-unit West Village townhouse with long family ownership and an active commercial dining strip nearby.
An 1854 West Village two-family townhouse with decades of history under the same family name before shifting into an LLC in October 2012. Two-unit properties like this rarely generate multi-family maintenance filings, but the surrounding blockface carries noticeable commercial restaurant and street activity. Three things to know:
Decades of family title shifted into a dedicated LLC in 2012. Deed records show the house was held directly under the Wasserman family name starting in the 1970s, including a $125,000 mortgage filing in 1984, before transferring into a dedicated LLC in October 2012. Small multi-family properties operate outside typical apartment building reporting, making direct owner conversation essential for upkeep standards.
Commercial kitchen activity and dining setups mark the surrounding block. City logs show 21 food establishment calls within three blocks over the past 12 months, running alongside 41 outdoor dining reports. Kitchen exhaust, cooking odors, and late-night venting bleed quickly into upper-floor residential windows along West Village dining strips.
Park noise and sidewalk activity cluster within three blocks. Over the past year, municipal records logged 98 encampment reports and 95 park noise calls for loud music within three blocks, alongside 78 commercial noise reports driven by street talking and night spots. Street-facing windows carry noticeable neighborhood activity.
