A century-old Kips Bay walk-up with a remarkably clean maintenance record, set against a chaotic block.
Held by the same ownership group for over two decades, this building is exceptionally well-maintained on paper and carries zero open violations. The internal operations remain steady, but the real story is the intense street corridor right outside the front door. Three things to know:
An incredibly noisy street corridor. The three-block corridor surrounding the building has logged 2,310 residential noise complaints over the last year. What's unusual is the makeup: 2,190 of those reports are specifically for banging or pounding rather than late-night music. It is a high concentration of neighborhood activity that will filter straight through street-facing windows.
Highly concentrated encampment activity nearby. Street life sits right at the doorstep on this stretch of East 25th Street. The local corridor recorded 379 encampment reports over the last year, with the most recent report filed on June 9, 2026. This volume is heavily elevated compared to citywide averages, bringing consistent neighborhood activity right up to the block.
Ownership is highly responsive and clean in official city channels. The building is exceptionally clean where it matters, carrying zero open violations. The management, registered under Jenna Goldman, has managed to run this apartment walk-up with a completely quiet regulatory record, indicating competent management that resolves issues before they escalate.
