About this building
City records list 2016 as the year built — newer than 97% of the 1,386 buildings we cover in ZIP 10027, and the newest of the 41 buildings we cover on this block. The building’s floor space is 6 times the size of its lot: 20,101 sq ft of building on a 3,364 sq ft lot.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of November 3, 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 under 181 West 126 Street — the address HPD files this building’s records under, not the address on this page — 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 7 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.

ⓘ Counted under 181 West 126 Street, not the address on this page. HPD files violations by street address, not by building. A corner building is often recorded on its cross street, so this can be the same building under another address — or a neighbouring one. HPD’s data alone does not settle which.
