279 State Street, Brooklyn

A 2005 single-family townhouse with a thin house file, sitting on a block with intense curb turnover and active food-establishment complaints nearby.

A 2005 single-family townhouse where the house's own filings are thin, shifting the main story to active street friction and nearby commercial activity. Without shared hallways or co-tenants, the lived experience is shaped entirely by the block. Three things to know:

Dense street parking enforcement and bike-lane blockage dominate the surrounding three blocks. 883 illegal-parking calls were logged within three blocks over the last year. The volume is driven by 281 sign violations, 179 blocked bike lanes, and 144 permit-misuse calls—short-term curb turnover and active enforcement rather than long-term stored cars.

Nearby food establishments generate recurring health and odor complaints in the surrounding blocks. 13 food-establishment complaints fanned out within three blocks in the last 12 months, with the most recent filed September 20, 2026. Nearby commercial kitchens and restaurant operations create potential air-quality and odor bleed for surrounding residential windows.

Stable single-family ownership following a $4.01M transfer in 2017. The townhouse last transferred in November 2017 for $4.01M to individual buyers who financed at closing. Ownership has held steady since, with no subsequent deed transfers or secondary mortgage filings.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 77 residential noise calls within three blocks over the last year, split between party and banging reports.
• 59 snow and ice sidewalk complaints logged within three blocks over the trailing 12 months.
• 42 for-hire vehicle complaints within three blocks in the last year, mostly curb staging.
