About this building
City records list 2007 as the year built — newer than 92% of the 861 buildings we cover in ZIP 10035, and the newest of the 23 buildings we cover on this block. At 30 floors, the tallest on this block. 206 apartments — the most of any building we cover on this block, and more than 98% of the 852 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 10035 have fewer. The building’s floor space is 13.3 times the size of its lot: 355,544 sq ft of building on a 26,773 sq ft lot.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of November 8, 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.

- City records show 6 open HPD violations, 1 immediately hazardous (Class C) under 1481 5 Avenue — the address HPD files this building’s records under, not the address on this page. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
- The oldest open violation on record dates to 2016 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
- DHCR’s most recent registration lists 47 rent-stabilized units here. Ask whether this specific unit is one of them, and ask the landlord for its legal regulated rent and lease history.
- Confirm the condition behind the most recent open violation was actually repaired, not just marked closed: Post notice, in form approved by the department, stating the name and location….
- Confirm in person that the immediately-hazardous (Class C) conditions — typically heat, hot water, leaks, mold or pests — are genuinely fixed, not just marked closed.

Building Condition
Oldest open violation: January 2016 · Most recent: February 2020. 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.
