The lot

What is already here?

  2. Floors 2–14Homes445 homes are recorded on this lot — about 32 homes to a floor. The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.

  • Homes445 recorded on the lot
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 15 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 42.1 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 40.7 m over 15 floors, as the city counts them. 3 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

29 violations are open against this address under the Housing Maintenance Code. 5 of them are the class the city calls immediately hazardous.

  • 5Immediately hazardous
  • 15Hazardous
  • 9Non-hazardous
  • 0Information 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.

What it sold for

26 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $483,000, from 25,000 to 800,000.

The property itself last changed hands for $205,000 on Mar 17, 2026.

Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Aug 31, 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.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 12, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up

Read from the brokerages’ own published listings on September 26, 2026. A home drops off this table the next time they publish a list without it — usually because it sold or let, though a listing can also expire or be withdrawn. What we know is that it is no longer offered, which is why this shows what they have today rather than what we were told once. Everything on the market across the city.

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 4050412. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

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