RALPH AVENUE REHAB comprises 111 apartments across 5 buildings, operated by the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA). The development is part of NYCHA's portfolio of approximately 159,354 apartments across 305 publicly-tracked developments city-wide.
MetroDeeds tracks 76 HPD violations at RALPH AVENUE REHAB as of June 12, 2026: 32 Class C (immediately hazardous), 17 Class B (hazardous), and 27 Class A (non-hazardous). HPD violations are recorded by the NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development based on building inspections and complaint follow-ups.
RALPH AVENUE REHAB is owned by the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) but has been transferred to private management under NYCHA's PACT (Permanent Affordability Commitment Together) program. Day-to-day property management — including maintenance and tenant services — is handled by a private company under the federal RAD program. NYCHA retains long-term ownership and rent regulation; tenants keep their public-housing tenancy rights.
RALPH AVENUE REHAB has approximately 0.68 HPD violations per apartment, versus the NYCHA-wide cohort average of approximately 0.05 violations per apartment (8,334 violations across 159,354 apartments). That is approximately 13.1× the NYCHA-wide cohort average — a high-density outlier.
RALPH AVENUE REHAB residents can request maintenance work via the MyNYCHA app (see nyc.gov/site/nycha/residents/mynycha.page for app store links) or by calling NYCHA's Customer Contact Center at 718-707-7771, available 24 hours a day. For emergency conditions HPD also enforces — including heat or hot water failures during heat-season months, no water, or mold — residents can additionally file a complaint with HPD by calling 311 or visiting nyc.gov/311. Sustained non-response can be escalated through NYC Housing Court via an HP Action; see the methodology page for guidance.
