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.

1960 East 46th Street sits in Brooklyn, ZIP 11234. No subway stations are within an 800-meter walk — expect to rely on buses or rideshare.

Lead Paint Exposure
This building only

4 lead-paint hazards cited and later remediated (most recent 2020); no open hazards on record. Remediation addresses the cited conditions, not necessarily every painted surface.

Under NYC Local Law 1 (Admin Code §27-2056.5), lead paint is presumed present in common areas and in apartments where a child under 6 resides, in multiple dwellings built before 1960 (this building: built 1931). The presumption stands unless the owner obtained a lead-free or lead-safe exemption from HPD. Those exemption records aren’t published as open data, so we can’t confirm one either way.

Source: HPD lead-paint violations (NYC Admin Code §27-2056).
