Who owns 1648 Amsterdam Avenue?

The city's property file lists AMSTERDAM GARVEY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FUN D CORP. as the owner of record for 1648 Amsterdam 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 1648 Amsterdam Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 1648 Amsterdam Avenue?

No executed eviction at 1648 Amsterdam Avenue 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 1648 Amsterdam Avenue rent stabilized?

DHCR registrations list 8 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.

What is 1648 Amsterdam Avenue assessed at for property taxes?

The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $739K 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 1648 Amsterdam Avenue?

10031 (Hamilton Heights) scores 51.3 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.
