Buildings With the Most Evictions

Methodology

1. Buildings are ranked by executed marshal evictions from the Department of Investigation’s “Evictions” dataset on NYC Open Data. Each row is a warrant of eviction a city marshal actually carried out, matched to a building by its BIN.
2. Counts are all-time across the dataset’s full span, residential and commercial together. An eviction is a historical fact about the address, not an open condition, so nothing here “closes”.
3. Counts are absolute, not normalized by building size. A large building naturally sees more evictions than a small one; the ranked rows lean heavily toward big rental buildings.
4. Eviction filings that never reached execution are not in this dataset and not counted. Rows the city published without an identifiable building are excluded.
5. Data refreshes hourly from NYC Open Data; this page recomputes on the same cadence. Registrations lag reality: an owner may have sold a building recently.
6. Every count is an open public record, not a finding of guilt. Many violations are contested or awaiting a hearing.

Corrections: if a record looks wrong, tell us and we will check it against the source dataset and reply.
