About this building

City records list 1973 as the year built — newer than 84% of the 345 buildings we cover in ZIP 10454. The building’s floor space is 2.8 times the size of its lot: 97,926 sq ft of building on a 35,527 sq ft lot. 96 apartments — more than 91% of the 342 residential buildings we cover in ZIP 10454 have.

Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of October 20, 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.

Lead Paint Exposure
This building only

No HPD lead-paint violations on record. Built 1973. For buildings built between 1960 and 1978, Local Law 1 applies where the owner knows lead-based paint is present — there is no automatic pre-1960 presumption. Lead paint in residential use was federally banned in 1978.
