About this building

City records list 2016 as the year built — newer than 95% of the 183 buildings we cover in ZIP 11354, and the newest of the 5 buildings we cover on this block. At 7 floors, the tallest on this block. The building’s floor space is 4.1 times the size of its lot: 38,429 sq ft of building on a 9,375 sq ft lot.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 18, 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.

139-20 34th Avenue sits in Queens, ZIP 11354. No subway stations are within an 800-meter walk — expect to rely on buses or rideshare.

Is 139-20 34th Avenue rent-stabilized?
No — 139-20 34th Avenue is fully market-rate. 30 residential units, none rent-stabilized. Source: DHCR / Taxbills.nyc.
Is 139-20 34th Avenue subject to lead-paint regulations?
No — built in 2016, after the 1960 lead-paint cutoff. Standard NYC paint regulations apply. Source: NYC Local Law 1.

ⓘ Counted under HPD building ID 987063, not a street address. HPD has no address-tagged violation records for this building, so the counts above come from the building ID on its HPD registration.

Issued October 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.
