Administrative filing backlogs mark the building's record, while commercial party noise and air-quality calls dominate the block.
A three-unit 1905 Bedford-Stuyvesant townhouse under family ownership that carries persistent administrative filing lapses. While the building's physical maintenance calls are minimal, heavy commercial activity and air-quality complaints cluster on the surrounding block. Three things to know:
Open citations reflect missed filing deadlines rather than physical disrepair. All eight open housing-code citations stem from administrative oversights—specifically failing to submit valid annual property registrations and bedbug report filings every year since 2022. The record shows zero open physical repair orders for structural, plumbing, or heat issues.
Ground-floor food venting and air-quality issues cluster nearby. Within three blocks of the house, neighbors logged 18 food establishment complaints and 9 indoor air quality reports in the past year. In a small townhouse setting, commercial kitchen exhaust and street fumes can enter units via windows or shared shafts.
Commercial party noise and street friction are active nearby. 183 commercial noise calls—mostly loud music and parties—and 172 encampment reports were logged within three blocks over the past 12 months. The house itself carries no noise filings, but street-level disruptions occur regularly nearby.
