1748 1st Avenue, Manhattan

    Small Upper East Side walk-up with a thin building file, but plenty of street-level noise right outside.

    An eight-unit Yorkville walk-up built in 1915, managed by Rose Property Management Group. The building's operational file is light, but the block around it stays active. Three things to know:

    Two open violations for fire escape obstructions. Two open Class B citations were issued in August and September 2023 for flower pots blocking egress on the front third-story fire escape balcony. Neither has been signed off as resolved yet.

    The surrounding blocks carry heavy evening noise. 531 residential noise calls were logged within three blocks over the last year, largely loud music, party noise, and late-night banging. With commercial space and street traffic along First Avenue, front-facing units absorb the brunt of it.
