The lot holds a 3-story mainly residential with some commercial built in 1931, with 4 homes, on a 2,000 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–3Homes4 homes are recorded on this lot — about 2 homes to a floor, and the apartments assessed on this block run to a typical 2,140 sq ft (199 m²). The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as mixed residential and commercial, so this floor is where the commercial space is.
  • Street levelMixed residential and commercial
  • Homes4 recorded · typically 199 m² · valued $1,878,000
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 9 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 25.6 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 10.5 m over 3 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

74 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 11 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 11Immediately hazardous
  • 31Hazardous
  • 20Non-hazardous
  • 12Information 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

20 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 2,140 sq ft (199 m²). They run from 110 to 455 m².

The city values the typical one at $1,878,000. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

Owner of record

KNG REALTY NY CO., 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 24, 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 3130640. 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 1 under review, 3 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
