Lead Paint Exposure

1 open lead-paint hazard violation on record (most recent 2019). These are HPD violations recorded against the building — not a test of any specific apartment.

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 (this building: built 1933). 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.
