HPD data as of November 3, 2026
Compliance grade not applicable

This building is public housing (NYCHA). NYCHA runs its own maintenance and work-order system, so a grade derived from HPD records would not describe how it is maintained, and we don’t assign one. Any HPD violations shown below are real records against the building — they are simply not the whole picture for NYCHA housing. The other public-records sections are unaffected.

Open Buildings Department records

City Buildings Department (DOB) records show 19 open DOB violations at this address, none in the immediately dangerous class. See the DOB Compliance section below.

ⓘ Counted under 131 St Nicholas Avenue, which the city lists as this same building. HPD files violations by street address, and this building is on file under that address rather than the one on this page — common for a corner building recorded on its cross street. The city’s address directory gives both the same building identification number (BIN 1058378), so these are this building’s records.

Lead Paint Exposure

No HPD lead-paint violations on record. Built 1964. 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.
