A 16-unit pre-war rental with a thin building file, but street noise, food-establishment venting, and curb crowding mark the surrounding block.
A 16-unit pre-war rental building where direct complaints against the address are minimal, but street-level activity and commercial operations dominate the surrounding block. Three things to know:
Street-level party noise runs high along the surrounding blocks. Over the last 12 months, 324 street-noise calls were logged within three blocks of the building, with 280 specifically citing loud music and parties. For street-facing units, late-night outdoor sound is a primary living factor.
Commercial food establishments push odor and exhaust complaints onto the block. Within three blocks, 17 food establishment calls were recorded in the last 12 months, alongside 74 commercial noise complaints. Restaurant venting and kitchen exhaust can carry into open windows or common shafts depending on unit position.
Double-parking and hydrant blocking create persistent curb friction. The surrounding three blocks logged 248 illegal parking calls in the last year, led by 62 sign violations and 60 blocked hydrants—reflecting double-parking and short errand drop-offs rather than long-term vehicle storage.
