Questions about 379 Washington Avenue
Who owns 379 Washington Avenue?
The city's property file lists 5523-WASHINGTON AVE & ST. JAMES BROOKLYN LLC as the owner of record for 379 Washington 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 379 Washington Avenue changed hands recently?
No deed for 379 Washington Avenue 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 379 Washington Avenue?
Yes. Two marshal-executed evictions at 379 Washington Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Sep 14, 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 379 Washington Avenue rent stabilized?
DHCR registrations list 47 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 379 Washington Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $10.6M 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 379 Washington Avenue?
11238 (Prospect Heights) scores 35.3 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.
