109-09 15 Avenue
Composite verdict
This 126-year-old condo building at 109-09 15th Avenue has a serious HPD violation profile: 20 open violations with an F-grade score of 2/100, including 3 Class C (immediately hazardous) and 2 Class B (hazardous) violations, and the landlord (WATERFRONT RESORT HOLDINGS LLC) is flagged as slow to respond. On the positive side, the immediate neighborhood has low crime (86/100, A- grade), no bedbug infestations on record in the past 3 years, and low noise activity (13 complaints in 12 months, B grade). The dominant 311 complaint type is parking-related (236 of 391 total calls), and there are no subway stations within walking distance — transit access is a real practical concern.

- HPD shows 3 Class C (immediately hazardous) violations open right now — can you identify exactly which units or areas they affect, and what is the current remediation timeline?
- The landlord response rate is flagged as 'slow' by HPD — with 20 open violations on a 134-unit building, what is the process for submitting and tracking maintenance requests, and what is the typical response time?
- The building was built in 1900 and is 126 years old — what major systems (boiler, plumbing, electrical, roof) have been updated, and can you provide documentation of those upgrades?
- There are 2 open Class B (hazardous) violations in addition to the Class C ones — what specifically are those violations, and have any been contested or deferred by the owner?
- 311 records show 194 Illegal Parking and 42 Blocked Driveway complaints in the area — is there dedicated resident parking, and how are access and driveway issues managed?
- There are no subway stations within walking distance of this address — what is the nearest public transit option, and what is the realistic commute time to Midtown Manhattan?
- Inspect the common areas, hallways, stairwells, and any shared mechanical spaces for visible signs of deferred maintenance — given the building's 1900 construction date and F-grade HPD score, look specifically for water damage, peeling paint, deteriorating plaster, and aging pipes or wiring.
- Ask to see the HPD violation postings, which are legally required to be displayed in the building — confirm the Class C and Class B violations are posted and note whether any remediation work is visibly underway.
- Check the building's street frontage and driveway access at the time of your visit, given the high volume of Blocked Driveway and Illegal Parking complaints — assess whether access is routinely obstructed and how that might affect daily life.
