1775 Davidson Avenue
This building has a substantial enforcement record over the last seven years, and our model predicts continuing maintenance failures over the next 12 months. Read the records below before you sign. Ask which issues were resolved, get repair commitments in writing, and inspect the unit yourself.
This building has 756 recorded HPD violations, above the Morris Heights average of 98.3.
The 6-story, 46-unit residential building at 1775 Davidson Avenue in Morris Heights, constructed in 1929 and currently owned by A Davidson LLC, has experienced several serious incidents and ongoing maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in March 2026, the building sustained fire, water, and smoke damage affecting the G and H lines, with a section of the roof approximately 15'x10' removed, exposing the interior to the elements. This incident precipitated a partial vacate order for the entire G and H lines, with a significant $10,000 penalty for failure to comply. The building's current condition is concerning, with multiple active violations as of August 2026, including electrical system grounding failures, unsafe electrical equipment, unauthorized plumbing modifications, and building code non-compliance related to elevator service and lead paint hazards.

What's in the 1775 Davidson Avenue report
Is 1775 Davidson 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 1775 Davidson 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.
How 1775 Davidson Avenue's risk score is calculated
