The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 5-story educational building built in 2024, on a 14,721 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–5Nothing on record
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as public facilities and institutions.
  • Street levelPublic facilities and institutions
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 10 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 28.5 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 18.3 m over 5 floors, as the city counts them. 1 run of floors has 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

51 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 8 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 8Immediately hazardous
  • 2Hazardous
  • 25Non-hazardous
  • 16Information 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.

Owner of record

647-651 ELTON AVE JV LLC

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
