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
12 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 1,610 sq ft (150 m²). They run from 120 to 176 m².
The city values the typical one at $1,062,344. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.
Owner of record
SUN FAIR REALTY CORP
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.

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 matched set includes 4 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 4 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
