Taxes and assessed value for 205 East 85 Street
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $52.1M for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $318K per residential unit.

The bill itself turns on the tax class rate and on any exemptions or abatements attached to the lot, neither of which is published here.
No executed evictions at 205 East 85 Street

Rent stabilization at 205 East 85 Street
No DHCR rent-stabilization registration is on file for 205 East 85 Street in the years PulseCities holds. Absence is not proof: an owner who stops registering leaves the same gap as a building that never had stabilized units. Checking your own apartment starts with the free rent history from the state. That is the only binding answer, and it takes time to come back. While you wait, you can get an email when the record here moves: a deed, an eviction, a permit or a violation filed on this building.

Questions about 205 East 85 Street
Who owns 205 East 85 Street?
The city's property file lists a private individual as the owner of record for 205 East 85 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 205 East 85 Street changed hands recently?
No deed for 205 East 85 Street 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 205 East 85 Street?
No executed eviction at 205 East 85 Street appears in the NYC evictions dataset, which PulseCities holds from April 2024 forward. Executed evictions are the end of the process, so a building with none may still have active housing court cases.
Is 205 East 85 Street rent stabilized?
No DHCR registration for 205 East 85 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 205 East 85 Street assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $52.1M 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.
What is the displacement risk around 205 East 85 Street?
10028 (Upper East Side) scores 23.4 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.
