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 133 open HPD violations, 19 immediately hazardous (Class C) at this building. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
- The oldest open violation on record dates to 2009 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
- 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.
- City Buildings Department records show an open life-safety condition (e.g. unsafe building / hazardous facade) — what is it, and has it actually been resolved, not just re-filed?
- Confirm the condition behind the most recent open violation was actually repaired, not just marked closed: Replace or repair the self-closing doors that is missing or defective latch in the entrance.
- 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.

Building Condition
Oldest open violation: September 2009 · 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.

1 open lead-paint hazard violation on record (most recent 2011). These are HPD violations recorded against the building — not a test of any specific apartment.
4 earlier hazards cited and remediated.
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 1937). 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: 4 procedural §27-2056 violations (failure to file required lead paperwork, most recent 2022) — a records failure, not evidence of a lead hazard.
