No HPD lead-paint violations are on record for this building — no complaint or inspection was filed, which is not the same as the building being lead-free. Under NYC Local Law 1 (§27-2056.5), lead paint is presumed in multiple dwellings built before 1960; this building’s construction year isn’t available to say whether that presumption applies.
