Newer Long Island City rental where heavy curb activity and indoor air quality signals mark the surrounding three blocks.
Newer nine-unit residential building in Long Island City, built in 2023. While specific housing-code violation filings for this building are unverified in recent data, street-level and indoor air signals within three blocks give a clear view of local conditions. Three things to know:
Indoor air quality signals show up on nearby blocks. 6 indoor air quality calls were logged within three blocks over the last year, with the most recent filed on September 15, 2026. Fumes, odors, and vapor circulation through shared risers or vents are difficult to spot during a tour, making floor position and ventilation key.
Curb space in the immediate three blocks experiences ongoing daily churn. 451 illegal parking complaints were logged within three blocks over the last year, led by 291 posted sign violations and 65 blocked sidewalks. An additional 111 complaints came in for blocked driveways, pointing to frequent curb turnover and delivery drop-off friction.
