Has 244 West 72 Street changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 244 West 72 Street?
Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 244 West 72 Street appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Feb 2, 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 244 West 72 Street rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 11 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 the displacement risk around 244 West 72 Street?
10023 (Upper West Side) scores 22.7 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index. The score reads five ZIP-level signals: eviction rate, LLC acquisition rate, permit intensity, assessment spikes, and 311 complaint volume. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.
Sourced from NYC public records: ACRIS deeds, DOB permits, the NYC evictions dataset, and 311. Records reflect what agencies have published and can lag events.
