Regulatory-bound 1920s Crown Heights rental where building-level filings are clean while the surrounding blocks carry heavy plumbing and street friction.
A 24-unit Crown Heights apartment building dating to 1920, operating under HUD affordable housing covenants and financing contracts. Head officer Michael Weiss oversees the property. Three things to know:
Water supply and fixture issues dominate the surrounding three blocks. 106 plumbing complaints logged within three blocks over the last year, led by 41 water supply issues and 31 bathtub or shower calls. The surrounding block infrastructure sees heavy pipe wear, so you will want to test water pressure and check under sinks during a walk-through.
Air quality and food establishment calls surface within three blocks. 3 indoor air quality calls and 3 food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks in the past year. Indoor air and exhaust bleed are impossible to detect on paper, making shaftway and lower-floor exhaust venting worth checking in person.
Hydrant blockages and double-parking create regular street friction. 102 illegal parking complaints within three blocks over the last 12 months, primarily centered on 46 blocked hydrant calls and 17 posted sign violations. Short-term blocking and curb friction are regular occurrences along this stretch.
