Questions about this building

Does 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan have open violations?

No. On October 10, 2026, 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan had no open HPD violations, counting every year, and no OATH/ECB summons issued in the last 3 years was still active.

Has DOB received complaints about 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan?

Yes. 4 DOB complaints in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. The newest was filed June 15, 2026. 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.

Does 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, renewed August 28, 2026. 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 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan?

ENERGY STAR score 98 for 2024, against a median of 67 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 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan last inspected?

It has 3 boilers, all inspected in 2026, the latest on February 9. 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 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan last file its bedbug report?

On May 4, 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 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan covered by Local Law 97?

Yes. It is on DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list. Covered under Article 321, the path for certain affordable housing and houses of worship (DOB's list, March 1, 2026). Local Law 97 sets greenhouse gas limits for most New York City buildings over 25,000 square feet, and DOB's covered buildings list says which path each building is on. The list reflects DOB's records, which owners can ask DOB to correct. This page never estimates a penalty or says whether a building complies.

Is 1998 2 Avenue, 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 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan have a property tax exemption?

The building has a 421-a tax exemption on DOF's 2026/27 roll. DOF lists its start year as 2024. An exemption lowers a property's tax bill by reducing its assessed value.

When was 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 2021 as the year 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator building with 12 floors.

How many apartments does 1998 2 Avenue, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 164 residential units at 1998 2 Avenue, 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, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. 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, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB boiler inspection reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list, the city's PLUTO tax-lot file and DOF's property sales records. 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.
