Heat and hot water

  • No heat or hot water complaints to 311 in the last year.

    Landlords must keep heat on from 1 October to 31 May, and hot water all year. Complaints here are from tenants in this building, not from us.

Pests

  • MediumHealth inspectors found active rat activity on 1 of 5 visits in the last two years, most recently in October 2024.

    This is the health department turning up in person and looking. Separate from the violations below, which are written orders to the landlord.

Noise

  • Minor1 noise complaint to 311 in the last year, of which 1 was about neighbours rather than the street.

    311 calls from this address. A busy street or a big building will always draw some — read the number against the size of the building.

Things to know

  • More violent crime than most areas we've checked

    120 violent felonies reported within 500 m over the last 12 months — higher than 91% of the areas we've profiled.

Reported crime is counted within 500 m over 12 months, from NYPD complaint data, and split into violent and property offences because busy commercial blocks record far more theft than quiet residential ones. We don’t reduce a neighborhood to a single score, and no apartment is ever hidden from you based on its area. Checked 17 days ago.
