No executed eviction at 47 Mac Donough Street 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 47 Mac Donough Street rent stabilized?

What is 47 Mac Donough Street assessed at for property taxes?

What is the displacement risk around 47 Mac Donough Street?

11216 (Bedford-Stuyvesant) scores 51.8 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index.
