Ranked by how many homes the tax roll records, not by anything this site has judged.

Owners of record with the most homes here

Owners are matched by the name on the tax roll. A company recorded under more than one spelling appears more than once, and one holding company can stand behind several names.

Questions people ask

How many buildings are there in East Harlem (South), Manhattan?

The Department of Finance's tax roll records 703 residential buildings in East Harlem (South), Manhattan, holding 28,466 homes between them. That counts lots with at least one residential unit; garages, lots and purely commercial buildings are not in it.

How many violations are open in East Harlem (South)?

This page does not carry a neighborhood total, and deliberately: the city publishes violations against buildings and none of the three feeds carries a census tract, so a true total would mean one query per building. What it does show is 1,756 open violations across the 40 largest buildings listed here. Each building's own page carries its full count.

Who owns the most buildings in East Harlem (South)?

By homes on the tax roll, 1199 Housing CORP is the largest owner of record in East Harlem (South), with 1,594 homes across 1 lot. Being the largest owner is a statement about size and nothing else.

What counts as East Harlem (South)?

The boundary is the City Planning Department's Neighborhood Tabulation Area of that name — 11 census tracts in Manhattan. NTAs are the city's own named geography, so this page draws East Harlem (South) where the city draws it, which will not always match where a listing agent or a lifelong resident draws it.

How this page is put together

East Harlem (South) is the City Planning Department's Neighborhood Tabulation Area of that name. Buildings are matched to it through the 2020 census tract the Department of Finance records for each lot, and DCP's own tract-to-NTA equivalency table — no estimate and no map-drawing. Checked against the neighborhood the Department of Buildings prints on its own permits: 295 lots sampled, 295 agreements, no disagreements.

Counts come from the tax roll on the day this page was built. Violation counts are for the buildings listed above only, because the city publishes violations against buildings and not against neighborhoods.

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.
