A single-family townhouse with almost no internal operational history, located on a block dominated by heavy street noise.
An 1896 single-family townhouse in Washington Heights held by the same family since 2009. The building itself stays out of tenant-landlord friction, but the surrounding block is defined by heavy street noise and curb congestion. Three things to know:
Street-level noise dominates the surrounding blocks. Within three blocks, neighbors logged 643 street noise calls in the last 12 months, driven by 373 complaints for loud talking and 270 for outdoor music and parties.
Double-parking creates regular traffic bottlenecks nearby. The three blocks around the building logged 304 illegal parking calls in the trailing 12 months. Over 120 of those were specifically for double-parked cars blocking moving traffic, making street congestion a recurring issue nearby.
The building carries one open administrative violation. As a single-family house, there are no shared hallways or tenant-vs-tenant filings on record. The only item on the building's housing file is a single open Class A violation from April 29, 2026, for an unfiled annual bedbug report.
