Thin building-scoped history paired with intense curb-space enforcement within three blocks.
Prewar Bed-Stuy condo conversion where individual unit records stay sparse, but street-level parking friction dominates the surrounding blockface. Three things to know:
Street enforcement centers on bike lanes along the avenue. 388 illegal-parking complaints logged within three blocks in the last year, driven heavily by bike-lane blockages (240 calls) and sign enforcement along Myrtle Avenue rather than stored vehicles. Curb activity is active and enforcement is constant.
Short-term rental and party complaints show up in the history. Building-scoped calls are light overall, but February 2026 saw an illegal hotel room call logged against the building. Combined with a four-complaint residential noise cluster around late December and early January, late-night turnover is a factor to track in board minutes.
