Clean residential record inside, but you are living right above an active commercial storefront.
This pre-war rental walk-up keeps a remarkably quiet public file, with zero open housing violations. While the residential apartments are managed cleanly, the ground floor's food operations and the busy Bushwick corner bring distinct local activity. Three things to know:
Ground-floor food operations bring some sanitation friction. A run of neighborhood complaints targeting the downstairs restaurant footprint warns of pests and commercial garbage handling, with the most recent filing on May 16, 2025. In a small pre-war layout, commercial exhaust, odors, and kitchen heat can pull directly through the residential structure.
Over 400 street-noise complaints on the corridor. The three-block corridor surrounding this address is incredibly lively, logging 437 street-noise calls over the last 12 months. This is active Bushwick street culture — think block parties and outdoor music rather than the steady hum of highway traffic.
Trash storage issues cropped up this spring. A building-level complaint on May 3, 2026, flagged that garbage bins were not being provided, leading to sidewalk overflow. Keeping the front of the building clean is a safety necessity when sharing walls with active dining spots downstairs.
