A turn-of-the-century Bed-Stuy two-family sitting on a busy operational block.
A 1901 Bedford-Stuyvesant two-family rowhouse where official housing-code data is missing from the record, shifting the read entirely to the surrounding blocks. The house itself carries almost no operational filings. Three things to know:
Unsanitary calls cluster heavily on the surrounding blocks. 208 unsanitary condition complaints were logged within three blocks over the last year, dominated by 99 mold reports and 69 pest calls. That indicates persistent moisture and pest friction across the immediate neighborhood.
Party and music noise dominate the surrounding street life. 141 residential noise calls hit the three blocks around the building over the last year, with 92 logged specifically for loud music and parties. Another 65 street-noise complaints were filed in the same area.
Street parking around the corner is constantly contested. 120 illegal parking complaints were filed within three blocks over the past year. The complaints center on 41 blocked hydrants and 24 parking permit violations, indicating tight curb space and short-term blocking rather than stored junk cars.
