What the record shows

Where the buildings are 336 of the 572 buildings with a current record — 59% — are in Brooklyn, with the rest spread across two other boroughs. Bronx accounts for 119; Manhattan accounts for 117.

How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 1933 Union Street alone carries 281 of them — 5% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and 29 buildings hold half of the total. Behind it sit 494 Sheffield Avenue with 269 and 1208 Southern Boulevard with 198.

Violations per apartment Across 8,645 apartments the portfolio runs 0.70 open violations per unit. 114 buildings average at least one open violation for every apartment in them.

The split inside the portfolio 297 of the 572 buildings with a current record have nothing open against them today, while 275 do. Portfolio-level averages hide that split, which is why the list is worth reading one row at a time.

What tenants called in Tenants filed 6,201 complaints against these buildings in the last 12 months, or 0.72 per apartment. The heaviest was 83 West 188 Street with 730. Complaints and violations are separate records — a complaint that closed without an inspector getting inside leaves no violation behind it.

Age of the stock The median building here went up in 1926, and 386 of 571 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 126 Pulaski Street and has been open 4.0 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 7,652 violations were written against these buildings in the last 24 months. 3,753 of them — 49% — have since been cleared, and 3,897 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.
