Building Condition

HPD Violations

Total12
Open7
Closed5
ⓘ Counted under 207 Lenox Avenue, which the city lists as this same building. HPD files violations by street address, and this building is on file under that address rather than the one on this page — common for a corner building recorded on its cross street. The city’s address directory gives both the same building identification number (BIN 1057633), so these are this building’s records.

Oldest open violation: November 2011 · Most recent: May 2014. HPD marks a violation open until it is certified as corrected, so an old date can mean an unresolved condition or a repair that was never certified.

Lead Paint Exposure

No HPD lead-paint violations are on record for this building. That means no complaint or inspection was filed — not that the building is lead-free.

Built 1907. Under NYC Local Law 1 (Admin Code §27-2056.5), lead paint is presumed present in common areas and in apartments where a child under 6 resides, in multiple dwellings built before 1960. The presumption stands unless the owner obtained a lead-free or lead-safe exemption from HPD. Those exemption records aren’t published as open data, so we can’t confirm one either way.
