About this building

The building’s floor space is 4.1 times the size of its lot: 317,277 sq ft of building on a 77,351 sq ft lot. 320 apartments — more than 99% of the 240 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 11355 have.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 28, 2026.

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.

43-70 Kissena Boulevard sits in Queens, ZIP 11355. No subway stations are within an 800-meter walk — expect to rely on buses or rideshare.

Is 43-70 Kissena Boulevard rent-stabilized?
Yes — 322 residential units at 43-70 Kissena Boulevard are registered as rent-stabilized. Source: DHCR / Taxbills.nyc.
Is 43-70 Kissena Boulevard subject to lead-paint regulations?
No — built in 1965, after the 1960 lead-paint cutoff. Standard NYC paint regulations apply. Source: NYC Local Law 1.
