Taxes and assessed value for 70 Battery Place
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $21.9M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $105K per residential unit.

Questions about 70 Battery Place
Who owns 70 Battery Place?
The city's property file lists NY URBAN LLC as the owner of record for 70 Battery Place. No deed for this lot appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds, so that name comes from the tax roll rather than from a recorded transfer.
Has 70 Battery Place changed hands recently?
No deed for 70 Battery Place appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds. That means no transfer has been published for this lot in the current window, not that the building has never been sold.
Have there been evictions at 70 Battery Place?
Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 70 Battery Place appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Apr 20, 2026. The dataset covers executed evictions only, so it undercounts housing court activity: cases that settle or end in a move-out never reach a marshal.
Is 70 Battery Place rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 43 stabilized units at this building in 2023. Registration is building-level, so it does not settle whether one apartment is stabilized. The free rent history from NYS Homes and Community Renewal does.
What is 70 Battery Place assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $21.9M for the 2026 tax year. That is the figure the city taxes rather than a sale price, and the bill depends on the tax class rate and on any exemptions on the lot.
What is the displacement risk around 70 Battery Place?
10280 (Battery Park City) scores 9.7 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index. The score reads five ZIP-level signals: LLC acquisition rate, permit intensity, 311 complaint volume, executed evictions, and serious HPD violations. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.
