511 Hart Street, Brooklyn

A 1901 Bushwick two-family townhouse held by the same family for over 50 years.

A 1901 Bushwick two-family rowhouse that has been in the same family since 1970, transferred in March 2023 from an estate into a family trust. Because it is a small two-unit building, housing-code filing data is unverified, shifting the focus to long-held ownership and what the surrounding block feels like. Three things to know:

Held in one family since 1970, then moved into a family trust. Deed records show the house was purchased in October 1970 and held for over five decades before moving into a family trust in March 2023 following an estate administration. It has not been flipped or turned over to commercial operators.

Commercial and party noise dominate the surrounding three blocks. Within three blocks, street-level calls over the last 12 months include 144 commercial noise complaints (mostly loud music and parties, most recently September 19, 2026) alongside 124 residential noise calls. It is an active residential stretch rather than an isolated block.

Blocked sidewalks and hydrants drive surrounding parking friction. The surrounding three blocks recorded 112 illegal parking complaints over the past year, driven mostly by 43 blocked-sidewalk calls and 22 blocked-hydrant reports — short-errand obstruction rather than long-term stored cars.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 61 street and sidewalk noise calls were logged within three blocks over the last 12 months.
• 15 rodent complaints were recorded across the surrounding three blocks in the past year.
• 10 homeless assistance requests were filed within three blocks over the trailing 12 months.
