About this building

City records list 1986 as the year built — newer than 87% of the 474 buildings we cover in ZIP 11212. 108 apartments — more than 92% of the 462 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 11212 have.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 28, 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.
