Small seven-unit Williamsburg building with no open violations, situated on a strip where sidewalk parking and air quality calls pop up nearby.
A 1930s Williamsburg walk-up registered under Bernard Tirnauer, carrying seven apartments and no open violations. The building itself stays out of agency filings, leaving surrounding commercial-strip patterns as the primary factor to evaluate before moving in. Three things to know:
The surrounding blockface sees heavy parking and sidewalk obstruction. 103 illegal-parking calls were logged within three blocks over the last year, with 50 citing blocked sidewalks and 20 for double parking. It is commercial-strip activity — delivery loading and blocked footpaths rather than abandoned vehicles.
Surrounding blocks show occasional indoor air quality and food establishment signals. Three indoor air quality calls and one food establishment complaint were logged within three blocks over the last year. Ground-floor commercial venting and exhaust can drift up exterior walls or through shared risers, making unit position key.
Utility and street repairs recur across the surrounding blocks. 59 street-condition calls logged within three blocks over the last 12 months, including 32 reports of roadway cave-ins, alongside 29 water-system calls nearby. Street utility repairs and pipe work are frequent on this stretch.
