Has 228 East 26 Street changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 228 East 26 Street?
No executed eviction at 228 East 26 Street appears in the NYC evictions dataset, which PulseCities holds from April 2024 forward. Executed evictions are the end of the process, so a building with none may still have active housing court cases.
Is 228 East 26 Street rent stabilized?

What is 228 East 26 Street assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $1.6M 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 228 East 26 Street?
10010 (Gramercy) scores 25.0 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.
