Grade unavailable: city records disagree on this building’s ID
The city’s own records disagree about which building this address is. Until they agree we withhold the compliance grade rather than publish a verdict built on one of them. The other public-records sections below are unaffected.
Open Buildings Department records
City Buildings Department (DOB) records show 10 open DOB violations at this address, none in the immediately dangerous class. See the DOB Compliance section below.

The building’s floor space is 3.1 times the size of its lot: 80,120 sq ft of building on a 25,625 sq ft lot.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of November 1, 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.
City records show 16 open HPD violations, 3 immediately hazardous (Class C) under 3235 Cambridge Avenue — the address HPD files this building’s records under, not the address on this page. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
The oldest open violation on record dates to 2023 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
DHCR’s most recent registration lists 5 rent-stabilized units here. Ask whether this specific unit is one of them, and ask the landlord for its legal regulated rent and lease history.
§ 02 Verify in person
Confirm the condition behind the most recent open violation was actually repaired, not just marked closed: Properly repair with similar material the broken or defective wood floor.
Confirm in person that the immediately-hazardous (Class C) conditions — typically heat, hot water, leaks, mold or pests — are genuinely fixed, not just marked closed.

ⓘ Counted under 3235 Cambridge Avenue, not the address on this page. HPD files violations by street address, not by building. A corner building is often recorded on its cross street, so this can be the same building under another address — or a neighbouring one. HPD’s data alone does not settle which.
Oldest open violation: August 2023 · Most recent: May 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 on record. Built 1960. 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.
ⓘ Listed by New York State. This building appears in the state's 2024 list of buildings containing rent-stabilized units (2024 building registrations filed with NYS HCR, as of November 2025). The list does not publish how many units are stabilized, and buildings can leave it. To confirm your own apartment, request your rent history from DHCR.
