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.

No HPD lead-paint violations are on record for this building — no complaint or inspection was filed, which is not the same as the building being lead-free. Under NYC Local Law 1 (§27-2056.5), lead paint is presumed in multiple dwellings built before 1960; this building’s construction year isn’t available to say whether that presumption applies.
