About this building
City records list 2023 as the year built — newer than 95% of the 474 buildings we cover in ZIP 11212. The building’s floor space is 2.2 times the size of its lot: 4,644 sq ft of building on a 2,100 sq ft lot.
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.
City records show no open HPD violations under HPD building ID 1012151 — 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 6 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.
