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

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.

Also on record: 1 procedural §27-2056 violation (failure to file required lead paperwork, most recent 2023) — a records failure, not evidence of a lead hazard.

Source: HPD lead-paint violations (NYC Admin Code §27-2056).
