HPD data as of October 27, 2026
Compliance grade not applicable

This building is public housing (NYCHA). NYCHA runs its own maintenance and work-order system, so a grade derived from HPD records would not describe how it is maintained, and we don’t assign one. Any HPD violations shown below are real records against the building — they are simply not the whole picture for NYCHA housing. The other public-records sections are unaffected.

Building identification — this building is not confirmed against the city’s address directory. The records below are the ones filed under this building’s ID.
Open Buildings Department records
