Questions about 626 Riverside Drive
Who owns 626 Riverside Drive?
The city's property file lists RIVERVIEW TOWERS INC as the owner of record for 626 Riverside Drive. 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 626 Riverside Drive changed hands recently?
No deed for 626 Riverside Drive 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 626 Riverside Drive?
Yes. Six marshal-executed evictions at 626 Riverside Drive appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Jun 4, 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 626 Riverside Drive rent stabilized?
No DHCR registration for 626 Riverside Drive 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 626 Riverside Drive assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $16M 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 626 Riverside Drive?
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. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.
