The 30-unit, 4-story building at 104 Tapscott Street is a century-old structure located in Brownsville and currently owned by NYC PACT Preservation Partners LLC. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, most notably in late 2025 when there was a cluster of emergency heat and hot water complaints affecting the entire building, with multiple incidents reported between November and December. There were also concerning issues with building safety in October 2025, including immediately hazardous violations related to defective self-closing doors at bulkhead locations. The building's infrastructure has faced ongoing challenges, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations (including 20 Class C violations) and various complaints to the Department of Buildings (DOB) including about the facade, plumbing, and boiler systems.

What's in the 104 Tapscott Street report
Is 104 Tapscott Street 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 104 Tapscott Street 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.
