Filed construction activity

$4,000 in permitted construction work filed since 2016 (1 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

YesBuilt before 1974 (1925)
NoSix or more residential units (2)
No421-a / J-51 tax benefit on the current tax roll

1 of 3 signals present. Only a partial profile — stabilization is possible but less likely. The definitive answer for any unit: request its rent history from NYS Homes & Community Renewal (free, at hcr.ny.gov).

Flood exposure

In the FEMA 1%-annual-chance floodplain (2015 preliminary flood maps) — lenders typically require flood insurance here.

Not in a hurricane evacuation zone.

In the city's stormwater flood map for a moderate storm at today's sea levels — modeled ponding of 4 inches or more in a heavy cloudburst (2.13 in/hr). Only 0.25% of NYC lots carry this flag; basement and ground-floor spaces are most at risk.

No street-flooding or sewer-backup complaints on record at this address.

Sources: FEMA flood maps (coastal), NYC DEP Stormwater Flood Maps (cloudburst), NYC hurricane evacuation zones, and 311 records for this address.

Complaints appear in the city's public 311 data, usually within a day or two, and then in the Live from 311 box on this page.
