565 Gates Avenue, Brooklyn

A four-unit Bed-Stuy walk-up with an individual record that stays light, while the surrounding blocks carry heavy street activity.

Four-unit Bed-Stuy brick walk-up where individual filings are light, but the surrounding blockface stays busy with parking enforcement and residential noise. Three things to know:

Surrounding blocks carry a heavy volume of late-night party and street noise. 168 residential noise calls within three blocks over the last year, largely driven by late-night parties and music, along with 50 street noise complaints. The building itself saw a small cluster of late-night music calls in January 2025 that cleared quickly.

Curb space stays tightly contested in the three blocks around the building. 182 illegal parking complaints within three blocks in the last 12 months, mostly concentrated around hydrants (54 calls) and posted sign violations (38 calls). It signals tight curb turnover and active enforcement on the immediate blockface.

The building changed hands in 2021 and carries zero open violations. Gavriel Dorfman took title in May 2021 following a transfer from Gates Commons LLC. Since then, the property has maintained zero active housing code violations across all risk tiers, keeping operational disputes off the public ledger.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 127 unsanitary condition calls within three blocks over 12 months, primarily pest and mold issues at neighboring addresses
• One rat sighting complaint reported at the address in April 2025, now closed
• 11 indoor air quality reports in the three blocks around the building over the past year
• The building's internal filings remain minimal, leaving the immediate block environment as the main variable.
