The violation records we previously showed here were filed against the building the city’s address directory ties to our building ID, not against this address. HPD’s own building list gives this address a different building. Until the two agree we show no violation counts here and assign no compliance grade, rather than publish another building’s record as this one’s. This is not a clean record and not a data outage.
ℹBuilt before 1939 (city records: 1920) — likely subject to NYC lead-paint rules
About this building
The building’s floor space is 4.7 times the size of its lot: 47,822 sq ft of building on a 10,092 sq ft lot.
Comparisons with neighboring buildings, as of November 10, 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.
DHCR’s most recent registration lists no rent-stabilized units in this building. If anyone tells you this unit is stabilized, ask to see the registration — and if it was deregulated, ask on what grounds and in what year.

HPD Violations

No HPD complaints filed in the past 12 months. No tenant has formally escalated a condition to HPD; could indicate clean upkeep, or that issues are being handled before reaching HPD.

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 1920. 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.
