56 Joralemon Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201
56 Joralemon Street is a historically significant 3-story brownstone building located in Brooklyn Heights, dating back to 1849. The property, which contains 4 residential units, is classified as an Old Law Tenement and is currently owned by Yusuf Sherwani.
The building's most notable recent event was a Department of Buildings complaint filed in July 2022 regarding an alleged illegal conversion. This complaint, designated as number 3865564, was marked as closed by November 2022.
The investigation into the complaint included two inspection attempts on November 16, 2022, though both times access to the property was denied to inspectors, leading to an inconclusive determination regarding the alleged conversion violation. Given the building's age and historical significance, any unauthorized modifications to its structure or unit configuration would be a matter of concern, though the lack of access during inspection limits available information on the current condition of the building.
