A modest record — below the level that usually signals systemic problems. More recorded distress than 77% of 6-24-unit residential buildings citywide. The citywide median for 6-24-unit residential buildings is 16.3 penalty
points per 10 units; this building carries 68.3. In ZIP 11211, 58% of residential buildings hold an A and
7% grade D or F.

What 311 hears from this address
70 service requests in the last three years. Most common: Illegal Parking (46) · HEAT/HOT WATER (9) · Noise (5) · Animal (3) · Food Establishment (2) · Graffiti (2).
Filed construction activity
$604,675 in permitted construction work filed since
2016 (3 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.
