Winter heat drops and nearby venting signals mark the recent record for this Bed-Stuy affordable property.
This 28-unit Bedford-Stuyvesant property operates under regulated affordability programs with HUD and LIHTC oversight. While long-term regulatory agreements keep ownership stable, cold-weather heating and neighborhood venting signals define the recent record. Three things to know:
Winter heat delivery shows recurring cold-weather friction. Fifty heat and hot water complaints were logged over the last three years, crowding around December 2025 and January 2026. A defective boiler call was logged in December 2025 alongside an open Class C hazardous violation for a broken hydronic radiator in Apt 4B.
Air quality and food venting calls drift across the surrounding blocks. Within three blocks, 7 air quality calls and 8 food establishment complaints were filed over the past year. These indoor air and venting calls suggest kitchen odors or exhaust draft near surrounding commercial spaces.
Street-level curb friction concentrates along local bike lanes and hydrants. 184 illegal parking complaints were logged within three blocks over the last 12 months, driven by 77 calls for blocked bike lanes and 40 for blocked hydrants. The calls reflect active delivery and curb turn-over rather than abandoned cars.
