Zero open code violations, but recent entry-hardware calls and surrounding commercial exhaust mark the building's profile.
This 6-unit East New York walk-up currently carries zero open housing-code violations, but recent tenant calls show internal building maintenance friction alongside commercial venting and parking issues nearby. Three things to know:
Maintenance calls clustered between November 2025 and February 2026. Tenants reported three door and window issues, four unsanitary condition calls, two electrical reports, and a damp spot call since late 2025. Calls specifically target the main entrance door and intercom hardware, alongside pest complaints inside apartments.
Commercial food establishment complaints signal potential kitchen exhaust bleed. 9 food establishment complaints were logged within three blocks over the last year, with the most recent call on September 7, 2026. Nearby commercial kitchens or food retail can push exhaust odors and kitchen fumes into upper-floor units through shared risers or rear lightwells.
