What 311 hears from this address

6 service requests in the last three years. Most common: Illegal Parking (2) · Noise (1) · Construction Safety Enforcement (1) · Lead (1) · Illegal Dumping (1).

Filed construction activity

$80,000 in permitted construction work filed since 2016 (6 filings with a declared cost) — a rough measure of how actively the owner maintains the building. Permit costs cover filed construction work only — they do not capture routine maintenance or repairs done without a permit.

Rent-stabilization signals

NoBuilt before 1974 (2019)
NoSix or more residential units (4)
No421-a / J-51 tax benefit on the current tax roll

0 of 3 signals present. None of the common signals are present — stabilization is unlikely (though never impossible). The definitive answer for any unit: request its rent history from NYS Homes & Community Renewal (free, at hcr.ny.gov).
