DHCR-listed buildings with tracked listings
4 indexable building pages have a listing address matched to the DHCR building registry. A building match does not confirm the status of any apartment in it.
Based on Leaseswap listings tracked during the last 6 months. Feature shares count explicit affirmative reports over all tracked listings; a missing detail is unknown, not a negative. Apartment size is based on listings that report square footage. Updated October 1, 2026.
Gravesend contains different building forms between its residential side streets and wider commercial corridors. An NYC Landmarks Preservation Commission archaeological assessment, based on a 2018 site visit, describes the surveyed area as a mix dominated by two-story attached dwellings and multi-story apartment houses, with smaller single-family homes and duplexes also present. It notes that Avenue P and Kings Highway include commercial building types and sites undergoing redevelopment. The survey focused on a defined project area, not every block in Gravesend, and its observations are not a present-day inventory.
For a house or duplex, ask whether the offered home is a complete unit or one part of a multi-home building, which entrance and floors are included, and whether a yard, basement, or driveway is shared. In an apartment house, confirm stairs or elevator access, laundry and package arrangements, and the maintenance process. Check windows and fixtures, test water pressure, and look for visible moisture during a viewing. Ask which utilities and appliances are included and make sure the lease states the terms.
City records document proposed mixed-use development at specific corridors, including an eight-story project at 2390 McDonald Avenue. That land-use application concerns one site and does not establish that construction is complete or that other buildings nearby share its design. Confirm the current status of any project affecting the block. Brooklyn Community Board 13’s map can help place an address in the board area, while its jurisdiction includes several neighborhoods; it should not be used as a precise boundary for a listing label.
Compare the actual unit and block, not just the neighborhood name. Walk from the building’s entrance to the places you expect to use, review the common areas, and ask the owner or manager to explain any shared facilities or ongoing construction. Verify the address and all building-specific terms before signing.
