About this building
City records list 1966 as the year built — newer than 76% of the 47 buildings we cover in ZIP 10128. The building’s floor space is 12.2 times the size of its lot: 148,747 sq ft of building on a 12,175 sq ft lot.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of November 8, 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 1681 2 Avenue — 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 2 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.
