Building record

888 8 AVENUE · built 1965 · 381 residential units · 20 floors

The owner registered 90 rent-stabilized units here in 2024 — see the filing ↗. That says the building has stabilized apartments, not that this one is among them — registrations are the owner’s own and are often filed unevenly. Ask before you sign.

Repairs the city has ordered

  • Minor12 open orders for a hazardous condition.

    Hazardous conditions — peeling paint, broken plaster, a door that won’t lock. The landlord gets 30 days.

    HPD violations, NYC Open Data

  • Minor6 open orders for a minor problem.

    Minor problems, 90 days to fix. A handful in a large building is ordinary; a lot of them suggests repairs are not being kept up with.

    HPD violations, NYC Open Data

  • Medium2 open building-code violations with the Department of Buildings.

    These are about the building itself — construction, elevators, boilers, facades — rather than the flat you would live in.

    DOB violations, NYC Open Data

Heat and hot water

  • MediumTenants complained to 311 about heat or hot water 2 times 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.

    311 service requests, NYC Open Data

Pests

  • Health inspectors have not visited in the last two years.

    The health department inspects buildings on complaint and on patrol. No visit here in two years is not the same as no rats.

    Rodent inspections, NYC Open Data

Noise

  • Medium18 noise complaints to 311 in the last year, of which 4 were 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.

    311 service requests, NYC Open Data

The landlord

  • The owner is registered with the city, as required.

    Buildings with three or more flats must register with the city every year, naming someone reachable.

    HPD registrations, NYC Open Data

  • Minor2 evictions carried out here in the last two years.

    Evictions carried out by a city marshal. Some turnover is normal in a large building; a rate well above its size is worth asking about.

    Marshal evictions, NYC Open Data

  • Owner on file: SUNSTONE ASSOCIATES LLC. Managing agent: SUNSTONE ASSOC LLC

Things to know

  • More violent crime than most areas we've checked

    152 violent felonies reported within 500 m over the last 12 months — higher than 96% 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 22 days ago.
