2457 Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Manhattan

Thin building-level filings, but heavy residential noise and sanitation activity across the surrounding three blocks.

A prewar Harlem condo declaration where initial sponsor sales rolled out heavily in 2020. Unit sales show individual owners trading since, including a $1,250,000 resale in February 2026. Three things to know:

The building's own record is thin, but housing data coverage is incomplete. The subject tax lot shows zero open housing violations, but city inspection coverage on the site is marked unverified. While the building's own operational filings remain light, unit transactions demonstrate an active secondary market following the 2020 sponsor sell-off phase.

Noise activity is concentrated heavily along the surrounding blockface. Within three blocks, residents logged 134 residential noise reports over the last year, led by 68 loud music or party calls and 44 reports of internal banging. Street-level noise adds another 50 calls nearby, making window exposure a key detail when evaluating specific units.

Sanitation and plumbing complaints dominate the three-block radius. The three-block radius recorded 143 unsanitary condition reports over the past 12 months, driven by 53 pest calls, 42 mold issues, and 39 garbage storage complaints. An additional 95 plumbing reports nearby highlight persistent water supply and fixture friction in adjacent prewar structures.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 17 homeless assistance requests and 8 encampment reports logged within three blocks over the last 12 months.
• 57 illegal parking complaints in the surrounding three blocks, alongside 26 blocked driveway filings.
• 7 indoor air quality reports recorded across the three-block area in the past year.
