The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 3-story walk-up apartment building built in 1920, with 3 homes, on a 1,500 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–3Homes3 homes are recorded on this lot — about one home to a floor, and the apartments assessed on this block run to a typical 1,026 sq ft (95 m²). The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as walk-up apartments.
  • Street levelWalk-up apartments
  • Homes3 recorded · typically 95 m² · valued $716,750
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 6 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 16.6 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 9.5 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

23 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 2 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 2Immediately hazardous
  • 16Hazardous
  • 4Non-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

4 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 1,026 sq ft (95 m²). They run from 84 to 164 m².

The city values the typical one at $716,750. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

What it sold for

3 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $490,000, from 340,000 to 1,125,000.

The property itself last changed hands for $2,100,000 on Oct 24, 2025.

Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Sep 30, 2026. Transfers under $10,000 are left out: New York records deed transfers between relatives at a dollar, and those are not sales. No apartment number and no name is carried from either side.

Violation record

Are there open violations here?

No open violations are recorded for this building.

Open means the agency has not recorded a resolution, which is not the same as the problem still existing. What a violation is, and what it is not. From NYC Department of Buildings, DOB Violations (3h2n-5cm9), accessed Oct 27, 2026.

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 3332451. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 3 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 1 recorded as completed, 2 approved. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
