This check is partly done. Some city records didn't come back (heat and hot water complaints, 12 months). The rest are below.
The asking rent of $4,500 is roughly 18% below the Manhattan median of $5,495 for comparable listings, which represents meaningful savings if the unit meets your needs. The building at 1955 1st Avenue was constructed in 2003, has 232 residential units across 7 floors, and currently shows zero open HPD violations—including no Class C (immediately hazardous) issues—which suggests the property is being maintained to code. There have been 16 noise complaints logged via 311 in the past year, so it's worth asking neighbors or the building staff during your visit whether there's a recurring source like construction, a bar, or a particular unit. No bedbug or rodent reports were filed in the last 12 months. Key details like whether the building has an elevator, laundry, pet policy, and the unit's square footage weren't provided, so confirm these directly with the listing contact at Clipper Equity before committing.
