Small UES walk-up, same family running it for almost sixty years.
12-unit prewar walk-up between 2nd and 3rd Ave. The McCarthy family has held it since the late 1960s — moved into an LLC in 2007 but the people on both sides of that deed are the same family, and the head officer on the HPD registration lives a block away on 85th. The record is almost empty. Three things to know:
The 'open HPD violation' is a paperwork item, not a problem inside the building. What's on the books is a Class A administrative violation for not filing the annual bedbug report on time — every NYC residential building has to file one, and the city issues this same violation any year the form is late. It's not a bedbug finding. The building has zero actual housing-condition violations, ever. One HPD complaint in the building's recorded history, back in December 2020.
One DOB permit in the building's entire history. Not in the last two years — in the whole record. No open jobs, no DOB complaints, zero DOB violations ever. On a 1925 walk-up that points to between-tenant cosmetic refreshes and whatever the super handles in-house. Fine if the systems are sound; quietly expensive if the next boiler or riser job has been put off.
Owner's HPD address is a block north on 85th. Decisions route through Dennis McCarthy at 208 E 85 — not a fund, not a remote LLC. On a 12-unit walk-up that usually means you're talking to the person, not a corporate complaint channel.
