Top insights
- More open HPD violations than ~67% of buildings in this ZIP (67 open)
- 7 open hazardous (Class C) violations
- Built in 1970 (city records)
A difference between the DHCR rent-stabilized count and the PLUTO total is common and does not, on its own, indicate a violation: units can leave rent stabilization legally, the two datasets count units differently, some units may be non-residential, and a registration can be filed incompletely. To check your own apartment, see how to request your rent history from DHCR.

- City records show 67 open HPD violations, 7 immediately hazardous (Class C) under 116-39 170 Street — the address HPD files this building’s records under, not the address on this page. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
- The oldest open violation on record dates to 2001 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
- DHCR’s most recent registration lists no rent-stabilized units in this building. If anyone tells you this unit is stabilized, ask to see the registration — and if it was deregulated, ask on what grounds and in what year.
- Confirm the condition behind the most recent open violation was actually repaired, not just marked closed: Repair the broken or defective plastered surfaces and paint in uniform color at ceiling….
- Confirm in person that the immediately-hazardous (Class C) conditions — typically heat, hot water, leaks, mold or pests — are genuinely fixed, not just marked closed.
116-31 170th Street sits in Queens, ZIP 11434. No subway stations are within an 800-meter walk — expect to rely on buses or rideshare.
Building Condition
Oldest open violation: May 2001 · Most recent: April 2024. 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.

No HPD lead-paint violations on record. Built 1970. For buildings built between 1960 and 1978, Local Law 1 applies where the owner knows lead-based paint is present — there is no automatic pre-1960 presumption. Lead paint in residential use was federally banned in 1978.
