Taxes and assessed value
The city's Department of Finance assessed this lot at $558K for the 2026 tax year. That works out to $56K per residential unit. Assessed value is what the city taxes, not what the building would sell for, and the two routinely differ by a wide margin.

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.
