12 Gordon Street
Composite verdict
The single most pressing issue at 12 Gordon Street is the open HPD violation flagging that the owner — 14 GORDON ST VENTURES LLC — has failed to file a valid registration statement with the Department, a violation that has been open for 166 days with no resolution. This is an administrative red flag: an unregistered landlord is legally prohibited from collecting rent increases and may face civil penalties, and the landlord's response rate is already rated 'slow.' Rent stabilization data is unavailable because the BBL is not in the WoW database, so that dimension cannot be assessed. On the positive side, the crime score is 85 (A-) with only 10 nearby incidents, and no bedbug infestations are on record for the past 3 years.

- The open HPD violation — filed 166 days ago — states the owner failed to file a valid registration statement as required by Admin Code §27-2097. Has this registration been filed and resolved, and can you provide documentation?
- HPD rates the landlord's response as 'slow' and the registration violation remains open after 166 days. What is the typical turnaround time for maintenance requests in this building, and do you have a written maintenance log from the past 12 months?
- The building is listed as Class V0 with 0 units on record and no year-built data available — can you provide the certificate of occupancy and clarify the legal use and occupancy classification of the unit being offered?
- Rent stabilization data is unavailable for this BBL. Is this unit subject to any form of rent regulation, and can you provide the lease history or prior rent registration filings to confirm?
- 311 records show 22 'Unsanitary Condition' complaints and 21 'General Construction/Plumbing' complaints in the area over the past year — have there been any plumbing, sewage, or sanitation issues inside this building specifically?
- Noise data shows 33 residential noise complaints in the past 12 months, earning a C grade for moderate noise activity — what are the walls and floor/ceiling construction like between units, and are there any known noise issues with neighboring units?
- Look for any posted HPD registration notice or building registration placard in the lobby or common area — its absence is consistent with the open violation for failure to register, and you should document whether one is displayed.
- Inspect plumbing fixtures, under-sink cabinets, and bathroom ceilings for signs of water damage, staining, or active leaks, given the 21 General Construction/Plumbing 311 complaints in the area and the unresolved administrative status of the building.
- Walk the common areas, hallways, and building exterior to assess overall maintenance condition — pay particular attention to trash storage and any signs of unsanitary conditions, given the 22 'Unsanitary Condition' 311 complaints nearby.
