What the record shows

Where the buildings are 7 of the 10 buildings with a current record — 70% — are in Brooklyn, with the rest spread across two other boroughs. Bronx accounts for 2; Queens accounts for 1.

How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 4514 Avenue L alone carries 22 of them — 44% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and two buildings hold half of the total. Behind it sit 292 East 3 Street with 14 and 720 New Lots Avenue with 10.

Violations per apartment Across 25 apartments the portfolio runs 2.00 open violations per unit. four buildings average at least one open violation for every apartment in them.

The split inside the portfolio 6 of the 10 buildings with a current record have nothing open against them today, while 4 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 1930, and 6 of 10 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 292 East 3 Street and has been open 3.6 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 44 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 6 of them — 14% — have since been cleared, and 37 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.
