A Bed-Stuy two-family carrying open hazardous violations from a 2022 turnover alongside nearby commercial venting activity.
An 1899 two-family townhouse in Bed-Stuy that changed hands in 2022 and carries open hazardous code violations from that turnover period. Ownership has since transferred to an LLC, but physical conditions in Apartment 1 and local commercial activity shape the living space. Three things to know:
Six Class C hazardous violations remain open in Apartment 1. The building carries 15 open code violations, six of which are Class C immediately hazardous citations issued in October 2022. They concentrate heavily on Apartment 1, covering peeling lead-based paint and required vacancy hazard controls alongside open mold and roof leak filings.
Commercial food establishment venting creates localized odor signals nearby. 51 food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks over the last 12 months, driven by commercial kitchen exhaust and venting issues nearby. In small residential structures, nearby kitchen exhaust and shared air pathways can drift into residential living spaces.
A 2022 sale ended decades of family ownership, followed by registration lapses. After sitting in long-term family ownership dating back to 1967, the house sold in February 2022 for $772,500 to an LLC, followed by multiple private lending mortgages. Late 2025 filings show a failure to maintain a valid owner registration statement.
