  • Street levelMixed residential and commercial
  • Homes1,590 recorded on the lot
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 13 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 38.1 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 38.1 m over 13 floors, as the city counts them. 3 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

38 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code.

  • 0Immediately hazardous
  • 31Hazardous
  • 7Non-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.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 12, 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.

The matched set includes 3 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 3 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
