Top insights

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.

Lead Paint Exposure

20 lead-paint hazards cited and later remediated (most recent 2026); no open hazards on record. Remediation addresses the cited conditions, not necessarily every painted surface.

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 (this building: built 1951). 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.

Also on record: 2 procedural §27-2056 violations (failure to file required lead paperwork, most recent 2024) — a records failure, not evidence of a lead hazard.

Source: HPD lead-paint violations (NYC Admin Code §27-2056).

Status103 units registered rent-stabilized with DHCR
ⓘ DHCR lists more rent-stabilized units (103) than PLUTO records as the building's total (102). The two city sources count units differently and don't reconcile here; treat both as approximate and verify with DHCR.
