Questions about this building

When were certifications filed on Class C violations at 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens?
Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 4 Class C violations, all 4 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 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens have active DOB violations?
Yes. 5 active DOB violations. The newest was issued July 3, 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.
What did the latest facade report find at 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens?
Rated Safe in the latest facade report, filed December 5, 2024 (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 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens?
ENERGY STAR score 77 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 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens last file its bedbug report?
On December 18, 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 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens 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 142-46 Sanford Avenue, Queens rent stabilized?

It also draws on DOB violations, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB facade filings, 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.
