A small McDonald Avenue residential building where ground-floor food activity and commercial odors dominate the record.
A 1930 two-family property on McDonald Avenue that sold to a development LLC for $1.8M in February 2023. While housing-code filings against the structure itself are sparse, active commercial food complaints and street friction frame the lived experience. Three things to know:
Food establishment and odor complaints attach directly to the address. Four food establishment complaints, including spoiled food, improper handling, and foreign objects, are logged directly against the building address, alongside two food poisoning reports. Kitchen odors and food storage friction are noticeable risks for residential units situated directly above commercial space.
Double-parking and blocked access characterize the immediate block. Curb space takes heavy pressure within three blocks, with 167 illegal parking complaints over the last year—mostly double-parking blocking traffic—and 105 blocked driveway reports. Vehicles frequently use the street curb as a loading point for neighborhood commercial stops.
