Questions about this building

Does 136 Avenue C, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 136 Avenue C, Manhattan had 5 open violations on October 10, 2026: 1 from OATH/ECB and 4 from HPD. None of them is Class C, but counting every year, HPD has 1 Class C violation still open here. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 11 years, since August 5, 2015.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 136 Avenue C, Manhattan?

Since October 12, 2023, a certification was filed on 1 Class C violation, by the original certify-by date. A certification is the filing, dated when it was made, not HPD's acceptance of it. It is compared with the original certify-by date on the notice. A granted postponement moves that date and the city's data keeps only the first, so a certification counted after it may still have met a postponed date.

Has DOB received complaints about 136 Avenue C, Manhattan?

Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. It was filed October 8, 2025. Anyone can complain to DOB about a building or the work going on in it, and DOB then inspects and decides whether there is a violation. A conversion complaint says an apartment may have been added or changed without approval. It is a complaint, not a finding.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 136 Avenue C, Manhattan marked completed?

Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since October 12, 2023: a general construction order, opened December 7, 2023, awarded for $65. HPD orders an emergency repair when a hazardous condition cited in a violation, or in another agency's emergency order, is not corrected, and does the work itself or through a contractor. The amounts are what the orders were awarded for, not a bill: this page does not show what was charged to the property or whether it was paid. Orders for lab tests, such as dust-wipe and asbestos samples, are not counted.

Does 136 Avenue C, Manhattan have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is a final one, issued October 5, 2022. A certificate of occupancy says how a building may be used and occupied. A temporary one lets people move in while work finishes and has to be renewed until DOB issues the final one. DOB's records here start in July 2012, so an older certificate may not show.

What is the ENERGY STAR score for 136 Avenue C, Manhattan?

ENERGY STAR score 100 for 2022, against a median of 65 for Multifamily Housing that year. Buildings over 25,000 square feet report their energy use to the city every year under Local Law 84. The ENERGY STAR score runs from 1 to 100 and compares a building with similar ones nationwide; 50 is the national median. The score is the one the city publishes, and this page never estimates a Local Law 97 emissions penalty. A lot that reported several properties in one year is not scored here.

When was the boiler at 136 Avenue C, Manhattan last inspected?

On February 20, 2026. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

When did 136 Avenue C, Manhattan last file its bedbug report?

Its 2 buildings had all filed by December 19, 2025, for the year to October 31, 2025. HPD asks the owner of every building with 3 or more apartments for this report once a year, covering November 1 to October 31, including buildings that had no bedbugs.

Is 136 Avenue C, Manhattan rent stabilized?

The building has rent-stabilized apartments on its 2024 registration. That comes from the Rent Guidelines Board's list of buildings with at least one stabilized apartment registered that year. Buildings that registered late are left off, and a 421-a or J-51 building can leave stabilization when its tax benefit ends. A particular apartment's status is for NYS HCR to say.

Does 136 Avenue C, Manhattan have a property tax exemption?

The building has an Article XI tax exemption on DOF's 2026/27 roll. An exemption lowers a property's tax bill by reducing its assessed value.

When was 136 Avenue C, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1900 as the year 136 Avenue C, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up building with 6 floors.

How many apartments does 136 Avenue C, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 22 residential units at 136 Avenue C, Manhattan. The count is for the whole tax lot.

Where do these numbers come from?

From New York City's own data: HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, read whole rather than sampled. It also draws on OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through October 10, 2026. The city's data changes daily, so a violation certified after that can still show as open here; the city's own page for this building is linked above.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus OATH/ECB summonses from DOB and FDNY, DOB complaints, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOF's exemption rolls, DOB NOW work permits, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active. The city's own pages can show more, never fewer.
