A 127-year-old Williamsburg three-family with administrative registration lapses and surrounding commercial air signals.
A three-family Williamsburg rowhouse built in 1899 that traded hands in December 2023 after decades of family-trust ownership. The building carries eight open violations, though all are administrative filings rather than physical hazardous conditions. Three things to know:
All eight open violations are administrative paper filings. Eight open violations sit on file, but they follow two specific paperwork routines: four class-A citations for missing annual bedbug filings and four administrative citations for unfiled annual property registration statements. None involve physical hazards like heat or water leaks, but it signals the paperwork side has lapsed.
Surrounding food and air complaints suggest potential odor drift. Within three blocks of the building, eight total calls flag air quality and commercial food issues over the last year, including five food establishment complaints and three indoor air quality reports. In small rowhouses, nearby restaurant venting or ground-floor commercial space can bleed odors into upper-floor risers.
Decades of family-trust ownership shifted to an LLC in 2023. The property was held across family trusts dating back to 1979 before deed transfers in December 2023 shifted ownership to 200 Penn LLC alongside a $1.6M sale document. Clarifying who handles daily maintenance matters more here than in a standard managed building.
