Surrounding blocks carry dense residential sound and food venting complaints, while the building itself keeps a thin operational record.
This 8-unit pre-war rental carries few operational filings under head officer Mike Spira following a 2018 deed transfer for $2.4M. While the building's own record stays thin, surrounding blocks show concentrated noise and commercial air quality complaints. Three things to know:
Heavy banging and indoor noise dominate the surrounding three blocks Within three blocks of the building, neighbors logged 761 residential noise calls over the past 12 months, led overwhelmingly by 598 complaints of banging and pounding, alongside 137 loud music reports. Another 196 street noise complaints fired in the same radius, remaining active through September 20, 2026.
Food establishment venting and indoor air complaints pop up nearby The surrounding three blocks logged 15 food establishment complaints and 14 indoor air quality reports over the last 12 months. Commercial food venting, odors, and indoor air issues present recurring friction nearby that tenants can only spot once moved in.
Building-level complaints remain minimal and resolved The property logged just three calls in the last year: an April 2026 heat report for a single apartment, a February snow removal issue, and an October 2025 off-hours construction complaint. All were closed with zero open code violations on file.
