Who owns 620 Lenox Avenue?
The city's property file lists HP SAVOY PARK II HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FUN D COMPANY, as the owner of record for 620 Lenox Avenue. 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 620 Lenox Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 620 Lenox Avenue?
Yes. 13 marshal-executed evictions at 620 Lenox Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Jul 21, 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 620 Lenox Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 261 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.
Has anyone won a rent overcharge case at 620 Lenox Avenue?
Yes. New York State granted 1 rent overcharge case at this address, meaning DHCR found a tenant had been charged above the legal rent. A granted case covers the apartment that brought it rather than the building, and only apartments whose tenants filed appear at all. The figures come from a freedom of information response covering cases closed between January 2021 and April 2026.
What is 620 Lenox Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $8.8M 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 620 Lenox Avenue?
10037 (Harlem) scores 45.7 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.
