1089 President Street
Analysis
The building’s modern construction and clean penalty record are positives, but the residential over‑building and open violations create medium‑level risk for investors.
The good
- Built in 2019, so the structure and systems are modern
- No enforcement or safety violation penalties are recorded
- No legal proceedings or tax‑lien status
- Large average unit size of 893 sq ft
The bad
- Built beyond its residential floor‑area limit (residential FAR 3.44 vs built FAR 8.18)
- Over‑built for residential use, limiting future expansion
- 10 open violations on record
- No arms‑length sale and market value on record is zero, indicating no recent comparable transaction
Written by a language model from this property's own figures — the same numbers shown on this page. It introduces no facts of its own: every figure it cites is checked against the data before the text is shown. It is a reading of the numbers, not a professional opinion, and it can be wrong about emphasis even when it is right about arithmetic. See our methodology.
What the numbers say
Generated from this property's own figures using the rules set out in our methodology. Every statement below refers to a number shown on this page.
Already larger than residential zoning would allow
The building occupies a floor-area ratio of 8.18, against a residential limit of 3.44 — it is over that limit by 4.74. A building in this position almost always predates the current rules and is legally non-conforming: it may generally remain, but it typically cannot be enlarged for residential use, and it may not be rebuildable as it stands.
A light open-violation load
Only 10 violations are currently open across 415 residential units, with $0.00 outstanding. For a building of this age that is a modest figure.

Total penalties owed combines two separate debts — enforcement penalties (from summonses) and safety-violation penalties (unfiled inspections and reports on boilers, elevators, facades and energy use). The second kind accrues quietly and is routinely missed; it is a standing debt on the building, not a fine someone can walk away from. The safety figure could not be retrieved for this property, so no total is shown — we would rather show nothing than a total that silently omits it. Neither figure includes unpaid property tax or water and sewer arrears, which are frequently the largest number of all and appear nowhere on this page. For a true payoff figure, go to the city directly.

Owner of record comes from the public land-use record and may lag a recent sale. It is frequently a holding company rather than an individual. If you own or manage this property and believe something here is wrong, tell us — we read and respond to every message of that kind.
Open violations
Open violations only. A violation that was raised and later corrected is not counted — an older building accumulates hundreds of those, and the number says more about its age than its condition.

Complaints
A complaint is an allegation, not a finding — many are dismissed. A sustained pattern is nevertheless informative about how a building is run.
