Questions about 501 5 Avenue

Who owns 501 5 Avenue?

The most recent deed on file for 501 5 Avenue names 501 Fifth Avenue CO. Deeds record the party that took title, which is often a holding company rather than the operator managing the building.

Has 501 5 Avenue changed hands recently?

No deed for 501 5 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 501 5 Avenue?

Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 501 5 Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Sep 9, 2024. 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 501 5 Avenue rent stabilized?

No DHCR registration for 501 5 Avenue 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 the displacement risk around 501 5 Avenue?

10017 (Midtown East) scores 12.5 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.
