Who owns 1490 Pitkin Avenue?

The city's property file lists BROWNSVILLE ASSOCIATES as the owner of record for 1490 Pitkin 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 1490 Pitkin Avenue changed hands recently?

Yes. 17 marshal-executed evictions at 1490 Pitkin Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Aug 21, 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 1490 Pitkin Avenue rent stabilized?

No DHCR registration for 1490 Pitkin Avenue 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 1490 Pitkin Avenue assessed at for property taxes?

The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $5.4M 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.
