New York Neighborhoods

NewYorkApartmentBuildings.com files every apartment building under one of 4 boroughs and one of 48 neighborhoods. Manhattan has 163 of the 239 buildings, Brooklyn 44, Queens 27 and the Bronx 5; no Staten Island building is recorded. This page is organized borough first. Each borough section gives the borough’s figures and a table of its neighborhoods, then a short entry for every neighborhood with four or more buildings. The 21 neighborhoods with one to three buildings appear only in their borough’s table, each linked to its page of buildings.

The entries stick to this directory’s records and to short facts from the linked public sources: where each borough and neighborhood is and a few landmarks. They describe places, not people, and they do not rank one neighborhood against another. The neighborhood pages are this directory’s own groupings and are approximate, so a page can include buildings beyond the boundaries described in the linked sources; a building’s street address is the precise reference.

Building Records by Neighborhood

NewYorkApartmentBuildings.com is a free, independent index of large New York City rental apartment buildings, organized into 4 borough pages and 48 neighborhood pages. Every building page carries the building’s name, street address, apartment count, year built, floor count and managing or owning company, compiled from a public source that is linked on the page. The table below summarizes when each neighborhood’s buildings were built, how tall they are and who manages them. This directory does not record building amenities or transit, so this page shows neither; confirm pets, parking, laundry, air conditioning and fitness rooms with each building’s leasing office.

Building and apartment counts, years built, floors, managing companies, mailing cities and ZIP codes come from this directory’s own building records, counted on October 7, 2026 (SKY’s unit count corrected October 28, 2026); apartment count, year built and floors are recorded for all 239 buildings, and each building page links the public source for its figures. Medians are rounded to the nearest year where needed. For how the records are compiled, see New York apartment building data.
