Active vacate orders from January 2026 fire damage mark the building file, while the surrounding three blocks generate persistent noise and indoor air quality calls.
This 24-unit Prospect Lefferts Gardens rental carries open fire-damage violations and active vacate orders on three apartments, while surrounding blocks log intense residential noise and indoor air quality calls. Three things to know:
Fire damage triggered active vacate orders on three units in January 2026. Housing inspectors issued three Class C violations in January 2026 to abate fire damage across apartments 22, 27, and 33. All three units were placed under official vacate orders that same week, prohibiting reoccupancy until complete remediation is certified.
Indoor air quality calls reflect air-bleed patterns on surrounding blocks. 11 indoor air quality calls were logged within three blocks over the last year. Airborne odors or fumes traveling through shared shafts or exhaust vents are impossible to spot during a quick walkthrough.
Residential noise complaints dominate the surrounding block record. 1,548 residential noise calls were logged within three blocks over the last 12 months, driven by 1,289 specific reports of banging and pounding. That volume far exceeds citywide averages and signals a heavy residential noise footprint across neighboring properties.
