Questions about this building

Does 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan have open violations?

Yes. 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan had 44 open violations on September 27, 2026: 44 from HPD. 20 are Class C, the class HPD treats as immediately hazardous. The oldest open HPD violation has been open 38 years, since October 14, 1987.

Is 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan getting better or worse?

Open violations are sitting, with little movement either way. 20 open Class C, with 5 certifications filed and 3 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 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan?

Since September 29, 2023, certifications were filed on 2 Class C violations, all 2 by the original certify-by date. HPD now marks 1 of them False 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 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan have active DOB violations?

Yes. 1 active DOB violation, issued December 13, 2011. 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.

Is 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan in housing court?

Yes. 1 open housing court case. 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.

When did 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan last file its bedbug report?

On May 1, 2026, 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.

When was 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan built?

The city's record gives 1920 as the year 506 West 162 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 5 floors.

How many apartments does 506 West 162 Street, Manhattan have?

The Department of City Planning's PLUTO tax-lot file lists 16 residential units at 506 West 162 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, HPD's housing court cases, HPD's annual bedbug 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 DOB violations, HPD's housing court cases, HPD's annual bedbug 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.
