How this page is put together

Everything above is read from New York City's published datasets: the Department of City Planning's PLUTO extract of the tax roll for the address, the year, the floors, the homes and the owner of record, and the DOB, HPD and ECB violation feeds for what is open against it. "Open" is the status the city's own dataset carries, on the day this page was built.

Records are matched to this lot by its Borough-Block-Lot number. Anything the city filed against a different lot, or against a building number this lot does not carry, will not appear here.

Please read

Check a Building reports facts about buildings and the entities that own them. It is not a consumer reporting agency, and this is not a tenant-screening service. Nothing here may be used to decide whether to rent to, hire, insure, lend to, or otherwise evaluate an individual person. It is not assembled or maintained for those purposes, it has not been prepared to the standards those decisions require, and it must not be used for them.

Every figure on this page is drawn from New York City's own published records and is reproduced without warranty that it is complete, current or accurate. Records are matched to an owner by name; a company can be recorded under more than one spelling, and two companies can share one. Verify anything you intend to rely on against the agency's own record. If something here is wrong, tell us — there is a correction link on every record in the app.
