Questions about this building

Does 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan had 6 open violations on October 10, 2026: 6 from HPD. 2 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 32 years, since October 15, 1993.

Is 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 2 open Class C, with 2 certifications filed and 1 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends October 10, 2026. It compares certifications filed with new Class C violations, and it describes what happened, not what anyone intends.

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan?

Since October 12, 2023, certifications were filed on 3 Class C violations: 2 by the original certify-by date, 1 after it. 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.

Does 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?

Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued February 24, 2017. The Department of Buildings writes these separately from HPD's housing violations, for things like boilers, elevators, facades, construction and energy filings. Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.

When was the boiler at 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan last inspected?

On September 11, 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 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan last file its bedbug report?

On August 20, 2026, 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 217 East 59 Street, 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.

When was 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1910 as the year 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a residence with stores or offices with 4 floors.

How many apartments does 217 East 59 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 6 residential units at 217 East 59 Street, 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 DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, 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 DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, 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.
