Questions about this building

Does 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan had 101 open violations on September 27, 2026: 101 from HPD. 18 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 10 years, since May 31, 2016.

Is 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

New violations are coming in faster than certifications are filed. 10 new Class C against 1 certification filed in the last 180 days. 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 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 2 Class C violations: 1 by the original certify-by date, 1 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.

Is 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan in housing court?

Yes. 2 open housing court cases, most of them tenant actions. The newest opened August 5, 2026. HPD takes buildings to housing court to get violations fixed and heat and hot water restored, and it joins tenants' own repair cases, called tenant actions. A case stays open until the court closes it.

Are any HPD emergency repair orders at 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan marked completed?

Yes. 2 completed HPD emergency repair orders since September 29, 2023, awarded for $1,761 in total. The most recent of the 2, a general construction order, was opened June 17, 2026. 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.

Does 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan have a certificate of occupancy?

Its latest certificate of occupancy is temporary, issued December 10, 2020. 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.

When was the boiler at 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan last inspected?

On March 3, 2026. DOB requires a boiler in a building with 6 or more apartments to be inspected once every calendar year, with the report filed within 14 days of the inspection. Low-pressure boilers in residential buildings with 5 or fewer apartments are exempt.

Is 212 East 117 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 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1910 as the year 212 East 117 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 212 East 117 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 14 residential units at 212 East 117 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 HPD's housing court cases, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports 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.

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus HPD's housing court cases, the Rent Guidelines Board's stabilized-building lists, DOB certificates of occupancy, HPD emergency repair orders, DOB boiler inspection reports 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.
