Repairs the city has ordered

  • Medium4 open orders to fix something the city calls immediately dangerous.

    The city’s most serious class. It covers things like no heat, no hot water, exposed wiring, broken locks and vermin — the landlord is required to fix them within 24 hours of being told.

    HPD violations, NYC Open Data

  • Minor1 open order 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

  • Minor1 open order 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

  • Medium5 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

  • 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.

    311 service requests, NYC Open Data

Pests

  • Health inspectors visited 2 times in the last two years and found no rat activity.

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

    Rodent inspections, NYC Open Data

  • No pest violations or bedbug reports on record.

Noise

  • Minor3 noise complaints 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.

    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

  • Minor1 eviction 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.

Things to know

  • More violent crime than most areas we've checked

    82 violent felonies reported within 500 m over the last 12 months — higher than 80% of the areas we've profiled.

  • Watch your bag

    293 property felonies within 500 m over the last 12 months, mostly grand larceny — typical of busy commercial blocks with heavy daytime footfall.

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 13 days ago.
