- City records show no open HPD violations under 220 St Nicholas 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 11 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.
- City Buildings Department records show an open life-safety condition (e.g. unsafe building / hazardous facade) — what is it, and has it actually been resolved, not just re-filed?
273 West 121st Street sits in Manhattan, ZIP 10027. The closest subway is 116 St (C,B) (4-minute walk), served by the B and C lines.
