The city's property file lists WEST 48TH HOLDINGS LLC as the owner of record for 439 West 48 Street. 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 439 West 48 Street changed hands recently?

Yes. Two marshal-executed evictions at 439 West 48 Street appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Jan 7, 2025. 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 439 West 48 Street rent stabilized?
