This building has 66 recorded HPD violations, at or below the Washington Heights average of 100.8.
The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts HPD violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.
The six-story building at 1392 St. Nicholas Avenue in Washington Heights, built in 1925 and managed by HP CSP GF1 Housing Development Fund Company, currently faces multiple pressing maintenance issues as of 2026. The property has experienced a notable series of plumbing-related problems in June 2026, with five separate complaints about bathtub/shower and basin/sink issues, all categorized as emergencies and remaining open. Additionally, there was a recent heat/hot water complaint affecting the entire building in June 2026, along with a door-related emergency from May 2026. The building's most serious concerns stem from April 2026, when violations were recorded for visible mold conditions and defective faucets in a sixth-floor apartment bathroom, with the mold issue classified as immediately hazardous (Class C). Between 2025-2026, the building underwent several tenant safety inspections, with one significant incident in April 2025 resulting in a $2,500 penalty for hazardous conditions related to the oil-fired steam boiler, after which the boiler was ordered to cease use due to a dangerous flue pipe opening.

What's in the 1392 St Nicholas Avenue report
Is 1392 St Nicholas Avenue rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 1392 St Nicholas Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
