Repairs the city has ordered
Medium1 open order 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.
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.
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.
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
Health inspectors visited 4 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.
No pest violations or bedbug reports on record.
Noise
Medium5 noise complaints to 311 in the last year, of which 5 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.
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.
Owner on file: 235 E 121 ST HDFC

Things to know
More violent crime than most areas we've checked
167 violent felonies reported within 500 m over the last 12 months — higher than 97% 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 today.
