Data as of August 16, 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.

Open Buildings Department condition

City Buildings Department (DOB) records show 13 open DOB violations at this address, including a hazardous facade condition (Local Law 11 / FISP), filed within the last 6 years. An open life-safety condition on record limits the compliance grade to B+ — see the DOB Compliance section below.

Lead Paint Exposure
This building only

No HPD lead-paint violations are on record for this building. That means no complaint or inspection was filed — not that the building is lead-free.

Built 1952. Under NYC Local Law 1 (Admin Code §27-2056.5), lead paint is presumed present in common areas and in apartments where a child under 6 resides, in multiple dwellings built before 1960. The presumption stands unless the owner obtained a lead-free or lead-safe exemption from HPD. Those exemption records aren’t published as open data, so we can’t confirm one either way.
