Buildings with low open violation rates near the BM3 bus in Kips Bay

It’s a location filter used to surface buildings near the BM3 bus route. Use it to narrow the search for commute convenience, then verify walking time and the closest stop to the specific building entrance you’d use daily.

It means the building has a lower count of currently open violations based on NYC open records. It’s a data-driven signal, not a guarantee about a unit’s condition right now.

Not necessarily. Open-records can lag real-world changes, and some issues may be closed, unreported, or addressed through work orders not reflected the same way. Ask the building directly for current status and remediation timelines.

Use it as one input alongside violations. This page’s Kips Bay snapshot shows an average rating of 3.7/5 across 138 rated buildings, which can help you compare renter experience, but it shouldn’t replace inspections and document checks.

Ask management for the most recent repair/maintenance updates tied to any open items they reference, whether there are ongoing investigations or planned remediation, and what documentation they can provide for timing and completion.

The filters operate at the building level (proximity to the BM3 route and low open violation rates). Individual units can still vary, so confirm unit-specific details during your tour and screening.
