No heat or hot-water complaints or violations were recorded here last winter (2025–26). That is the city's record: it only holds what somebody reported.

The rules, 1 October to 31 May: from 6am to 10pm, when it is below 55°F outside, the apartment must be at least 68°F; overnight it must be at least 62°F whatever the weather. Hot water must be at least 120°F all year. A tenant without heat can report it to 311.

This building is not on the state's list of buildings with rent-stabilized apartments for 2024. That is not proof none are: an owner who did not register is missing from the list too.

HPD has no violations on record for this building. That is the city’s record, not a verdict: a violation only exists if somebody complained and an inspector came.

Complaints are reports made to the city. They are not confirmed findings. They come from HPD and from 311, and the same problem can appear more than once if more than one neighbour called.

11 complaints in three years, 6 of them in the last twelve months.

• Construction and illegal work6 / 9
• Garbage and cleanliness0 / 1
• Pests0 / 1

Last twelve months / last three years. The solid part of each bar is the last twelve months.

Housing Court cases

Cases the city’s housing department (HPD) brought against the owner, usually to force repairs or restore heat. A case is an allegation; where the court recorded an outcome, it is shown.

No HPD Housing Court cases on record for this building.

Evictions

Residential evictions carried out by a city marshal since 2017. Most follow a case for unpaid rent, so a count here is not by itself a finding about the building or the landlord. We show how many, never which apartment.

No marshal evictions recorded at this building since 2017.

Annual bedbug report

Every multiple dwelling in New York must file this once a year. A report of zero infested units is good news. No report is not: failing to file is itself a violation.

No bedbug report on file for this building. That usually means the owner did not file one, not that there is nothing to report.

Associations come from registration records and may be incomplete. Owners register with HPD once a year, so a change of hands can go unrecorded for a full cycle.

No current HPD registration for this address. Buildings the owner occupies, and some small ones, are not required to register, but a rental building that should be registered and is not is itself a violation.

Wrong company, wrong date, or a change that is not reflected here? Report a correction.

Drawn from this building’s record above. They are questions, not conclusions: the point is to find out, in the twenty minutes you get inside, what the public record cannot tell you.

1. 11 active construction permit on file. Ask what is being done, on which floors, and until when, and whether it affects heat, water or the elevator.
2. 2The building's HPD registration is out of date or names nobody we could identify. Ask who the managing agent is and get a name, a phone number and an address in writing before you sign.
3. 3Ask what the deposit is, exactly what can be deducted from it, and how and when it comes back.
4. 4Ask who to call when something breaks, what happens after hours and at weekends, and how long a repair normally takes.

Ask for anything that matters in writing; an email after the viewing is enough. We are not your lawyer and this is not legal advice.
