Questions about 839 Riverside Drive

Who owns 839 Riverside Drive?

The city's property file lists GOLD RIVER CAPITAL, LLC as the owner of record for 839 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 839 Riverside Drive changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 839 Riverside Drive?

Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 839 Riverside Drive appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on May 7, 2024. 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 839 Riverside Drive rent stabilized?

DHCR registrations list 36 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 839 Riverside Drive assessed at for property taxes?

The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $3.6M 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 839 Riverside Drive?

10032 (Washington Heights) scores 46.3 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.
