The public record, citable, with the source on every line.

Every figure names the dataset it came from and the date it was read, the caveats sit beside the numbers they qualify, and the PDF states what it is and is not — not a consumer report, not a valuation, not the statutory disclosure. A record you can quote, from a service that is careful about what it refuses to say.

The questions it answers

What exactly does each source say?
How current is each figure?
Can I cite this in a filing?
What is deliberately excluded, and why?
Where does the city publish this?
Is this a consumer report?

The sections that earn their keep

The building's permitsEvery permit the Department of Buildings has filed against the lot, filed and issued counted apart, each line carrying the dataset it came from and the date it was read.

Complaints and violationsAllegations and findings, counted separately and dated — with abatement status.

The graded housing recordEvery condition Housing Preservation and Development recorded inside the building, with the city's own grade on each.

What the city opened, and whenViolations from both agencies around the address, each with the date it was issued and the agency's own category — dated, sourced, and quotable as filed.

Every caveatThe report's refusals are documented, which is what makes the rest of it quotable.

Nothing here needs a compliance read. The report contains no scores, grades or rankings — no safety rating, no school grade, no neighborhood letter. Those are the classic proxies for what the Fair Housing Act protects, and this product refuses them by design: you get counts, comparisons and sources. It names no person, and it is not a consumer report.

How to read a New York reportFour agencies keep the record here and none of them keys it the same way. Which number comes from where, and why two of them are not supposed to agree.Why the borough is not optional350 Broadway is a real address in more than one borough, and they are different buildings. This is the one thing a New York lookup cannot guess.Assessed is not market, and here the gap is the pointNew York assesses most property at a fraction of what it would fetch and limits how fast that figure may climb. A $577m assessment is not an estimate of the price.Built against allowed: the floor area ratioThe single most useful number on a New York lot, and one no other city in this product publishes. The Empire State Building is at 308% of what its own zoning now allows.
