A six-unit Harlem walk-up operating under affordable housing covenants that keep the building's own regulatory record clear of open violations.
Built in 1910, this property at 22 East 125th Street houses six subsidized apartments wrapped in an affordable housing partnership. A $14,517,282.74 deed transfer in December 2025 shifted the title to Finite Cluster Partners LLC, keeping the long-term regulatory structure intact. Three things to know:
A $14,517,282.74 deed transfer in late 2025 keeps the building under strict regulatory covenants. The December 19, 2025 transfer to Finite Homes Housing Development Fund Corp ensures the building's six units remain bound by affordable housing rules. Because these are structured under housing development programs, the owner cannot convert them to market-rate rentals or sell them off, providing stability for the residents.
Repeated odor and air complaints on the surrounding blocks suggest neighborhood restaurant or HVAC venting. Over the last year, neighbors within three blocks filed 10 food establishment complaints and 9 indoor air quality reports, suggesting commercial kitchen venting or industrial fumes from nearby storefronts on 125th Street. In a building this size, street-level venting can easily bleed up through shared risers.
A cluster of plumbing calls in 2025 points to localized drain issues. Residents filed six plumbing complaints in 2025, specifically focused on backed-up toilets and sinks. While there are currently zero open housing violations, these repeating reports—especially a cluster of calls in April and December—suggest the pipes take a beating.
