This building’s record with the City

Complaints tenants filed with 311, and repairs a City inspector has asked for. Most repairs are routine maintenance. Both describe the building rather than the people in it, and often predate the current management.

5.0/5No open repairs or complaints on recordScored from the records below against every building we cover. It is not a tenant rating. Nobody who lived here said this.

Clean record: nothing outstanding, and no complaints from tenants in the past year.

The company’s record across its other buildings, not this building’s. A company can run one well and another badly, and these figures often predate the current management. (HPD and 311, as of 28 September 2026.)
