What the record shows

Where the buildings are 11 of the 12 buildings with a current record — 92% — are in Queens, with the rest spread across one other borough. Brooklyn accounts for 1.

How the violations are distributed Open violations are not spread evenly across these buildings. 50-14 41 Street alone carries 16 of them — 84% of everything open across the buildings with a current record — and one building holds half of the total. Behind it sit 115-40 Van Wyck Expressway with 2 and 133-20 Farmers Boulevard with 1.

Violations per apartment Across 20 apartments the portfolio runs 0.95 open violations per unit. two buildings average at least one open violation for every apartment in them.

The split inside the portfolio 9 of the 12 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 1925, and 11 of 12 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 50-14 41 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.
