What the record shows
Independence Community Realty Corp. holds 14 buildings with a current record and 298 open violations between them. The weight is not even: 4360 Baychester Avenue accounts for 94% of it, while 11 of the 14 have nothing open at all.
Where the buildings are 11 of the 14 buildings with a current record — 79% — are in Manhattan, with the rest spread across two other boroughs. Brooklyn accounts for 2; The Bronx accounts for 1.
How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 4360 Baychester Avenue alone carries 279 of them — 94% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and one building holds half of the total. Behind it sit 53 Morton Street with 14 and 455 West 34 Street with 5.
Violations per apartment Across 800 apartments the portfolio runs 0.37 open violations per apartment. one building averages at least one open violation for every apartment in it.
The split inside the portfolio 11 of the 14 buildings with a current record have nothing open against them today, while 3 do. Portfolio-level averages hide that split, which is why the list is worth reading one row at a time.
Age of the stock The median building here went up in 1921, and 12 of 14 predate 1960. Pre-1960 buildings carry lead-paint and window-guard obligations that newer stock does not, which shapes what turns up in an inspection.
How long things stay open The longest-standing open item in the portfolio is at 4360 Baychester Avenue and has been open 3.9 years. An old open violation is not a paperwork lag — it is a condition the city recorded and has not been shown to be corrected.
What has moved in the last two years 415 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 172 of them — 41% — have since been cleared, and 243 are still open. That ratio moves between city sweeps, which is why a standing total on its own says less than it looks like it does.
How buildings are linked: by HPD registration, deed, or a confirmed parent company. Being named as a head officer or managing agent is not the same as owning.
