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

3 open lead-paint hazard violations on record (most recent 2025). These are HPD violations recorded against the building — not a test of any specific apartment.

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 1950). 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: 8 procedural §27-2056 violations (failure to file required lead paperwork, most recent 2025) — a records failure, not evidence of a lead hazard.
