About this building
City records list 2009 as the year built — newer than 93% of the 621 buildings we cover in ZIP 11106. The building’s floor space is 3.9 times the size of its lot: 33,500 sq ft of building on an 8,550 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.
City records show no open HPD violations here — ask what was most recently repaired and how maintenance requests are handled, since a clean record isn’t a guarantee of upkeep.
DHCR’s most recent registration lists 30 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.
