Five-story walk-up with additional walk-ins on the ground floor... Exactly like the one I grew up in on Decatur Avenue. Probably the same architect. Just what it's listed as in the official New York City housing records.

Guess I can't resist correcting the CIDS.

Wouldnt it be a 5 story w/ cellar apartments?

No, ground floor apartments accessible from the street, below the first story. Cellar apartments were usually below grade where the building superintendents ("supers") usually lived.

Click on the link above to see 1750 Grand Avenue.
I don't know anyone on the Job who wouldn't say it's a six-story multiple dwelling.

2839 Decatur Avenue, five-story walk-up. Source of that information, two former residents of the building:
1. Officer of the third due engine (88), my father;
2. Chauffeur of the first due ladder (37), his brother, my uncle.
Verified by New York City building records.
Notice the similarity to 1750 Grand Avenue... Almost exact.

Thank you.
You're making my point. CIDS is often incorrect. Official City housing records listed as a five story. And it's the building I grew up in for 18 years.
 
So should the Admin company officer be made aware they wrong?

Assuming they make the CIDS? Not sure if the CIDS are made up while doing BISP/AFID

Do the city officials who made the records need to inform the FDNY that the information they have on the building are wrong which could hinder life safety for both the occupants and member?

How does it work? Maybe living in a similar type building and having family OTJ you might know. I have no clue how CIDS get made
