Questions about this building
Does 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan have open violations?
Yes. 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan had 22 open violations on September 26, 2026: 22 from HPD. 13 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.
Is 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 13 open Class C, with 0 certifications filed and 4 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. 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 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan?
Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 5 Class C violations, all 5 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.
Does 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?
Yes. 5 active DOB violations, most of them for not posting the energy grade. The newest was issued December 1, 2023. 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.
Has DOB received complaints about 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan?
Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the last 12 months. It was filed November 22, 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.
What did the latest facade report find at 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan?
Rated Safe in the latest facade report, filed November 10, 2020 (inspection cycle 9). Buildings taller than six stories must have their exterior walls inspected once in every inspection cycle under the city's Facade Inspection Safety Program (every five years under DOB's current rule), and each inspection report is filed with DOB as Safe, SWARMP (safe with a repair and maintenance program) or Unsafe. No Report Filed means DOB has no report for that cycle. The rating is from the latest filing and does not describe the facade today; DOB's page for the building shows anything filed since.
What is the ENERGY STAR score for 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan?
ENERGY STAR score 65 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.
Is 160 West 116 Street, 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.
When was 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan built?
The city's record gives 1983 as the year 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as an elevator apartment building with 9 floors.
How many apartments does 160 West 116 Street, Manhattan have?
The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 89 residential units at 160 West 116 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, DOB complaints, DOB facade filings, Local Law 84 energy reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 26, 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.
