Top insights

About this building

The building’s floor space is 7 times the size of its lot: 25,777 sq ft of building on a 3,681 sq ft lot.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 31, 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.

Open26
Closed87
ⓘ Counted under 48 Meserole Street, 46 Meserole Street, which the city lists as this same building. HPD files violations by street address, and this building is on file under those addresses rather than the one on this page — common for a corner building recorded on its cross street. The city’s address directory gives both the same building identification number (BIN 3071050), so these are this building’s records.

Oldest open violation: March 2020 · Most recent: March 2026. HPD marks a violation open until it is certified as corrected, so an old date can mean an unresolved condition or a repair that was never certified.

Lead Paint Exposure

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 1931. 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.
