Questions about this building
Does 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan have open violations?
Yes. 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan had 10 open violations on September 27, 2026: 10 from HPD. 10 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 2 years, since July 18, 2024.
Is 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?
Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 10 open Class C, with 7 certifications filed and 1 new Class C in the last 180 days, too few to call a direction. That window ends September 27, 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 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan?
Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 15 Class C violations: 9 by the original certify-by date, 6 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 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?
Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued April 29, 2021. 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 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan?
Yes. 1 DOB complaint in the 12 months to September 25, 2026. It was filed March 4, 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.
Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan marked completed?
Yes. 1 completed HPD emergency repair order since September 29, 2023: a lead paint order, opened August 29, 2025, awarded for $2,000. 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.
What is the ENERGY STAR score for 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan?
ENERGY STAR score 100 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 did 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan last file its bedbug report?
On December 17, 2025, 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 519 West 189 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.
Is 519 West 189 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 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan built?
The city's record gives 1925 as the year 519 West 189 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 519 West 189 Street, Manhattan have?
The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 45 residential units at 519 West 189 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, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, HPD emergency repair orders, Local Law 84 energy reports, HPD's annual bedbug reports, DOB's Local Law 97 covered buildings list and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. This page is current through September 27, 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.
