Small Carroll Gardens rental with no open housing-code violations, set against heavy sidewalk obstruction on the surrounding blockfaces.
A five-unit Carroll Gardens property built in 1931 with no open housing-code violations. While the building's internal code history stays clear, street-level activity and air quality calls in the immediate neighborhood show distinct patterns. Three things to know:
Blocked sidewalks dominate the surrounding three blocks. 4,105 illegal parking complaints were logged within three blocks over the last year. 3,860 of these specifically report blocked sidewalks rather than double-parked cars, pointing to constant pedestrian path obstructions along the immediate streetscape.
Indoor air quality calls pop up on the surrounding blocks. Five indoor air quality complaints were recorded within three blocks in the past 12 months, with the most recent filed in August 2026. Odor or vapor calls often indicate commercial exhaust or shared riser drift that penetrates nearby living spaces.
Trash staging accounts for the building's few direct complaints. The address has logged three trash complaints and seven illegal parking calls since late 2024. None led to open city violations, but they reflect minor recurring friction around refuse staging and the front curb.
