Four-unit Cobble Hill walk-up where curb enforcement and street conditions carry most of the neighborhood friction.
Four-unit Cobble Hill building constructed in 1888, with a $1.65M transaction recorded in February 2026. The building carries two open violations while street-level complaints dominate the immediate surrounding blocks. Three things to know:
Two open administrative citations are on file. The building carries two open violations: an unfiled registration statement from November 2025 and a Class A violation from May 2026 for failing to submit the annual bedbug report. While neither flags an immediate hazard inside the apartments, they show administrative oversight gaps.
Curb enforcement and street repairs drive outer block friction. 285 illegal parking complaints hit within three blocks over the last year, driven by 149 posted sign violations and 85 blocked hydrants — short-errand curb turnover rather than abandoned cars. Street Condition calls logged another 56 complaints, including 30 street cave-ins.
