About this building

City records list 2021 as the year built — newer than 94% of the 249 buildings we cover in ZIP 10451. The building’s floor space is 9.4 times the size of its lot: 227,705 sq ft of building on a 24,235 sq ft lot. 206 apartments — more than 92% of the 244 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 10451 have.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 21, 2026.

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.

Building Condition

HPD Violations

Total9
Open7
Closed2
ⓘ Counted under 414 Gerard 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: April 2026 · Most recent: September 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.
