A six-unit Ridgewood walk-up carrying one open non-hazardous housing violation, set on a block with noticeable commercial air-quality calls and heavy curb enforcement.
This six-unit Ridgewood walk-up transferred to 1817 Palmetto LLC under Liping Chen for $965K in late 2021. Operational filings against the building itself are thin, but surrounding blocks show commercial kitchen exhaust and curb enforcement activity. Three things to know:
The building carries one open Class A violation for facade cleanliness. The building carries one open Class A non-hazardous violation from April 2026 directing management to clean the building front. Operational logs are otherwise light, showing only three total calls—including a report for a missing window guard in late 2025 that has since been closed.
Commercial kitchen exhaust and air-quality calls cluster on surrounding blocks. Within three blocks, neighbors logged 13 food establishment calls and 6 indoor air quality reports in the past year. Kitchen fumes and exhaust venting can travel into upper residential apartments, making window orientation critical during a tour.
Curb enforcement and residential noise drive street-level friction nearby. Within three blocks of the building, 200 illegal parking calls—mostly blocked hydrants and posted sign violations—and 155 residential noise reports were logged over the past year. Curb congestion and late-night noise remain active on nearby blocks.
