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 54 open HPD violations including 4 Class C violations, which are the most serious category indicating immediately hazardous conditions, ask the listing agent or landlord specifically what these violations are and whether repairs are scheduled, and at the viewing check for issues like peeling lead paint, broken windows, or heating system problems. The $6,300 asking rent runs about 12% above the Manhattan borough median of $5,650 for comparable units, so you'll want to confirm whether the unit's condition and finishes justify that premium. The listing photos are a mixed bag: the first two images appear to be digitally enhanced renderings with artificial staging and unrealistic lighting, while the remaining six photos look honest, so rely on those for a realistic sense of the space and verify room dimensions in person since the photos suggest rooms may appear larger than they are. The building logged 12 noise complaints to 311 over the past year, which could reflect typical city living or a recurring issue worth asking current residents about if you see any during your visit. Key details like square footage, pet policy, laundry availability, and whether the unit is rent-stabilized weren't provided, so gather these directly from the broker before committing.
