Taxes and assessed value

Is 2121 Fredrick Douglass Bl rent stabilized?

What is 2121 Fredrick Douglass Bl assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $711K 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 2121 Fredrick Douglass Bl?
10026 (Harlem) scores 50.6 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.
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.
