  • Homes78 recorded · typically 89 m² · valued $260,763
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 11 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 30.5 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 19.3 m over 6 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

172 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 80 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 80Immediately hazardous
  • 67Hazardous
  • 24Non-hazardous
  • 1Information 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

24 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 955 sq ft (89 m²). They run from 52 to 191 m².

The city values the typical one at $260,763. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Oct 1, 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 3115633. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 4 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 2 under review, 2 recorded as completed. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
