New York City Violation Rankings — September 2026
A fixed snapshot of New York City’s building violation records as they stood in September 2026. Unlike the live rankings, these figures are written once and never recalculated, so anything citing this page stays accurate.

Source: NYC HPD violation records. Ranked per residential unit, so large buildings don't top the list by size alone.
Landlords
Source: NYC HPD violation records. Ranked by total open violations — unit counts weren't available for enough of this set to rank per unit.
