Questions about this building

Does 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan had 14 open violations on September 26, 2026: 14 from HPD. 11 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous.

Is 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

Certifications are being filed about as fast as new violations come in. 7 certifications filed and 10 new Class C in the last 180 days, neither far ahead. 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 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan?

Since September 28, 2023, certifications were filed on 16 Class C violations, all 16 by the original certify-by date. HPD now marks 2 of them Invalid Certification. 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 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?

Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued September 23, 2024. 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.

Does 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is a final one, issued January 14, 2013. 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.

Is 252 West 149 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 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1910 as the year 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan was built, in the Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file. The same file classes it as a walk-up apartment building with 6 floors.

How many apartments does 252 West 149 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 24 residential units at 252 West 149 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 certificates of occupancy 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.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB certificates of occupancy 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.
