Yes. Two marshal-executed evictions at 536 West 50 Street appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Oct 29, 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 536 West 50 Street rent stabilized?
No DHCR registration for 536 West 50 Street appears in the years PulseCities holds. That is a gap in the registration record rather than an answer about any apartment, and the free rent history from NYS Homes and Community Renewal is what settles it.
What is 536 West 50 Street assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $2.1M 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.
