ⓘ Counted under 10 Patchen Avenue, not the address on this page. HPD files violations by street address, not by building. A corner building is often recorded on its cross street, so this can be the same building under another address — or a neighbouring one. HPD’s data alone does not settle which.

Oldest open violation: September 2019 · Most recent: April 2026. 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.
