New violations are coming in faster than certifications are filed. 10 new Class C against 4 certifications filed in the last 180 days. That window ends September 26, 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 123 Ludlow Street, Manhattan?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 2 Class C violations, all 2 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.
Is an HPD vacate order in effect at 123 Ludlow Street, Manhattan?
Yes. HPD's vacate order for part of the building has been in effect since April 28, 2026. Reason on the order: fire damage. A vacate order requires all or part of a building to be emptied for the reason on the order, and it stays in effect until HPD rescinds it. HPD Online shows whether an order has been rescinded since.

Yes. 6 active DOB violations, most of them for construction. The newest was issued April 21, 2026.

Each one stays active until DOB resolves or dismisses it.
Has DOB received complaints about 123 Ludlow Street, Manhattan?
Yes. 3 DOB complaints in the last 12 months. The newest was filed April 23, 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.

Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 28, 2023: a general construction order, opened June 30, 2026, awarded for $577. 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.
