This check is partly done. Some city records didn't come back (heat and hot water complaints, 12 months). The rest are below.
The summary from before our checks changed
This 1910 building has 13 open HPD violations, including 2 Class C violations, the most serious category requiring immediate correction, typically for conditions like lack of heat, hot water, or lead paint hazards. Before signing, ask the landlord specifically what these violations are and request proof they've been addressed; you can also verify current status yourself through HPD's online portal using the building's BBL number. The $5,450 asking rent is about 3% below the Manhattan median of $5,600 for comparable units, putting it within typical market range. At 1,000 square feet in a 4-unit building, the space is relatively generous, though the listing photos show virtual staging and consistent wide-angle lens use across multiple interior shots, expect rooms to feel 15-20% smaller in person than they appear online. There's been one noise complaint filed in the past year and no rodent or bedbug reports, suggesting the building is reasonably well-maintained day-to-day despite the outstanding violations. Key details remain unclear: pet policy, laundry availability, and rent stabilization status aren't specified in the listing, so confirm these directly with the broker. The building predates elevator requirements and has only 5 floors with 4 residential units, so assume walk-up unless told otherwise.

Photos
We looked at 3 of 12 photos (we check up to 8, and skip any that won't load).
Photo 0 shows significant virtual staging and wide-angle distortion with unnaturally perfect lighting—likely enhanced. Photos 1 and 2 appear authentic industrial spaces but use wide-angle lenses. Wide-angle is consistently applied across interiors (2+ photos), so expect rooms to appear 15-20% larger than actual. Caution advised on perceived square footage.
Verticals bow outward at edges; furniture layout and lighting appear perfectly staged with no shadows. Room appears unnaturally spacious for NYC.
Curved ceiling line and stretched corners typical of ultra-wide lens. Authentic industrial space with exposed brick and real furnishings.
Bowed verticals and stretched left/right edges from wide-angle lens. Authentic kitchen with real furnishings and exposed brick.
We look at the listing's photos where they are published and never store them. These are visual signals, not measurements.
