New Rochelle Code of Ordinances ch. 209 § 209-2 requires that owners of multiple dwellings post a clearly readable sign in a prominent location within the building. The sign must identify the owner and managing agent, including their residential and business addresses and phone numbers. When the owner is a corporation, the sign must also list the names, addresses, and phone numbers of the corporate officers and the corporation itself.

Under ch. 209 § 209-2, compliant operators of multiple dwellings in New Rochelle post and maintain a legible sign in a conspicuous common area of the building. The sign includes the owner's and managing agent's full contact details — both residential and business addresses and telephone numbers. When ownership is held by a corporation, the sign also identifies each corporate officer by name, address, and phone number alongside the corporation's own contact information, and operators routinely update the sign whenever this information changes.

Section 209-2 of the New Rochelle Code of Ordinances gives tenants in multiple dwellings the right to see a clearly posted sign identifying who owns and manages their building, along with contact information for those parties. If no such sign is posted or the information is outdated or illegible, that may constitute a violation of this provision. Tenants who believe this requirement is not being met can document the absence or deficiency, contact the City of New Rochelle's code enforcement office to report the concern, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
