How much did 320 Sterling Street sell for?

Is 320 Sterling Street rent stabilized?

What is 320 Sterling Street assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $2.8M 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.
