DHCR-listed buildings with tracked listings
1 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 2, 2026.
Glendale’s housing context is mainly low-rise, with building forms that vary between streets and commercial edges. NYC City Planning’s Middle Village–Glendale rezoning describes the two neighborhoods as predominantly low-density residential areas with one- and two-family detached, semi-detached, and attached houses. It says much of Glendale’s housing stock dates to the 1920s and 1930s. The study treats Glendale and adjacent Middle Village separately, placing Cooper Avenue between them; its observations apply to the mapped planning area, not every address in the larger community.
Myrtle Avenue is one of the commercial corridors identified in the planning study. The nearby Ridgewood Reservoir lies in Glendale within Highland Park, according to Queens Community Board 5, and the board lists several smaller parks and playgrounds. The Glendale branch of Queens Public Library is another public reference point. These destinations help distinguish a home near a commercial avenue or large open space from an interior residential block.
For an apartment search, first confirm the address falls in Glendale rather than assuming that the whole Community Board 5 area shares one pattern. Compare a detached, semi-detached, or attached house with any apartment building you are considering, and ask how its entry, hallway, outdoor area, and maintenance responsibilities work. At a showing, check the exact unit, windows, ventilation, storage, and visible upkeep. If a home is close to Myrtle Avenue, listen indoors and check whether the entrance is separate from a storefront or other shared space.
A useful visit combines the immediate block with a walk toward Myrtle Avenue, a nearby park, or the library. Notice how building form changes near local businesses and open space, then verify what the listing includes and who handles repairs. Planning documents describe neighborhood patterns, not the condition or management of an individual property. Glendale’s low-rise housing and commercial corridor make it worthwhile to compare the block, building, and unit separately before deciding whether a particular home fits your needs.
