About this building
City records list 1923 as the year built — older than 79% of the 495 buildings we cover in ZIP 11226. The building’s floor space is 4.6 times the size of its lot: 136,157 sq ft of building on a 29,688 sq ft lot. 126 apartments — more than 97% of the 494 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 11226 have.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 21, 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 336 open HPD violations, 112 immediately hazardous (Class C) at this building. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
- The oldest open violation on record dates to 2015 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
- DHCR’s most recent registration lists 124 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: Properly repair or replace the broken or defective counter balance at lower window sash….
- 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: November 2015 · Most recent: October 2026. 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.

17 open lead-paint hazard violations on record (most recent 2026). These are HPD violations recorded against the building — not a test of any specific apartment.
113 earlier hazards cited and remediated.
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 1923). 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.
Also on record: 1 procedural §27-2056 violation (failure to file required lead paperwork, most recent 2026) — a records failure, not evidence of a lead hazard.
