Taxes and assessed value for 240 1 Avenue
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $790.9M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $90K per residential unit.

Rent stabilization at 240 1 Avenue
DHCR registration records list 8,768 rent-stabilized units at this building in 2023, the most recent year PulseCities holds. That is up from 8,764 units in 2018.

Questions about 240 1 Avenue
Who owns 240 1 Avenue?
The city's property file lists BPP ST OWNER LLC as the owner of record for 240 1 Avenue. 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 240 1 Avenue changed hands recently?
No deed for 240 1 Avenue 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 240 1 Avenue?
Yes. 44 marshal-executed evictions at 240 1 Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Oct 6, 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 240 1 Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 8,768 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.
Has anyone won a rent overcharge case at 240 1 Avenue?
Yes. New York State granted 4 rent overcharge cases at this address, meaning DHCR found a tenant had been charged above the legal rent. A granted case covers the apartment that brought it rather than the building, and only apartments whose tenants filed appear at all. The figures come from a freedom of information response covering cases closed between January 2021 and April 2026.
What is 240 1 Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $790.9M 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 240 1 Avenue?
10009 (East Village) scores 20.1 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.
