This building is public housing (NYCHA) and isn’t registered in HPD’s violation system, so we don’t assign a compliance grade. For NYCHA buildings, maintenance records are kept by NYCHA, not HPD. The other public-records sections below are unaffected.

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.
This is NYCHA public housing, so HPD’s violation database isn’t the maintenance record — ask the management office for this unit’s open work-order history and average repair time.
