The lot holds a 5-story elevator apartment building built in 1920, with 16 homes, on a 5,833 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–5Homes16 homes are recorded on this lot — about 4 homes to a floor, and the apartments assessed on this block run to a typical 2,700 sq ft (251 m²). The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.

  • Homes16 recorded · typically 251 m² · valued $1,082,912
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 11 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 31.7 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 20 m over 5 floors, as the city counts them. 2 runs of floors have something on record. The city publishes a roof height and a storey count for the lot, and nothing at all about any individual floor. What stands to the south is measured from the city’s own footprints and roof heights; it is a statement about the skyline, not a calculation of sunlight.

Housing violations

3 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 1 of them is the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 1Immediately hazardous
  • 2Hazardous
  • 0Non-hazardous
  • 0Information order

Open means the Department of Housing Preservation and Development has not recorded it as corrected, which is not the same as nobody having fixed it. The city publishes the apartment each was written against; that is not carried here, because a count says a building has a problem and an apartment number says whose.

The apartments

82 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 2,700 sq ft (251 m²). They run from 102 to 418 m².

The city values the typical one at $1,082,912. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

What it sold for

2 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $5,175,000.

Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Aug 31, 2026. Transfers under $10,000 are left out: New York records deed transfers between relatives at a dollar, and those are not sales. No apartment number and no name is carried from either side.

Owner of record

291 BROADWAY RLTY ASSOC.

As the assessment roll records it. Only owners that read as a company are shown here; where the roll names an individual, nothing is published.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 30, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up

What is recorded here

Multiple filings, one stable building identifier.

New York City's Building Identification Number helps connect filings that may use different application numbers or describe different scopes of work. The records below are grouped because they publish BIN 1001642. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 6 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 4 approved, 1 closed or withdrawn, 1 under review. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
