Analysis
AI-generated Risk: Medium
The building’s compliance record is clean, but the over‑built status and lack of a market sale make it a moderate‑risk investment.
The good
- Zero open violations and no open violations per unit
- No enforcement or safety violation penalties owed
- No legal proceedings and not on a tax lien sale list
- 115 permits issued indicating active compliance activity
The bad
- Built beyond its residential floor‑area limit (built FAR 3.51 vs limit 2.43)
- Over‑built for residential use with 98,618 sq ft of unused buildable area, limiting future expansion
- No arms‑length sale recorded, market value on record is zero
- Residential units are smaller than the average unit size suggests potential rent constraints
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 3.51, against a residential limit of 2.43 — it is over that limit by 1.08. 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 higher limit of 4.80 does apply to community-facility use, which produces an apparent 98,618 sq ft of headroom — but that is not residential floor area and is not interchangeable with it. Reading that number as room for more apartments is the most expensive mistake available in this data.
No open violations on record
Nothing is currently outstanding against this property. Closed violations are not counted here — a violation that was raised and then fixed is a problem that went away, and an older building will have accumulated many of them. What matters is what is still open, and here that is nothing.

The levy is an estimate — taxable value × the published rate for the class. It does not account for exemptions or abatements the property may carry, and will not match an actual bill. It is not the property's total debt to the city: unpaid tax and water arrears are not shown anywhere on this page.

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

Permits & alterations
The absence of a permit does not prove no work was done — it may equally mean work was done without one.

About this page
Compiled from New York City public records — data retrieved 6 days ago. Coverage on this parcel: 14 of 15 record groups populated. The derived figures — unused floor-area ratio, buildable area, the assessed-value trend and the per-unit ratios — are calculated by us and appear in no public dataset; the formulas are in the methodology.
This is a research tool, not advice. It is not a title search, a lien search, a survey or an inspection, and it does not replace any of them. If a figure here matters to a decision, verify it at the source. See Terms.
