The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 9-story office building built in 1890, on a 6,032 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–9Nothing on record
  2. Floor 1Street levelStreet level. The lot is recorded as commercial and office, so this floor is where the commercial space is.
  • Street levelCommercial and office
  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 19 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 56.7 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 36.3 m over 9 floors, as the city counts them. 1 run of floors has something on record. The city publishes a roof height and a storey count for the lot, and nothing at all about any individual floor. What stands to the south is measured from the city’s own footprints and roof heights; it is a statement about the skyline, not a calculation of sunlight.

The apartments

68 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 2,282 sq ft (212 m²). They run from 42 to 493 m².

The city values the typical one at $1,025,326. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

What it sold for

12 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $855,000, from 45,000 to 4,025,000.

Recorded sale prices from the Department of Finance’s rolling file, covering the year to Aug 31, 2026. Transfers under $10,000 are left out: New York records deed transfers between relatives at a dollar, and those are not sales. No apartment number and no name is carried from either side.

Owner of record

SQUARE WEST LLC C/O N

As the assessment roll records it. Only owners that read as a company are shown here; where the roll names an individual, nothing is published.

Lot facts come from NYC Department of City Planning, Primary Land Use Tax Lot Output (PLUTO) (64uk-42ks), accessed Sep 1, 2026. They describe the tax lot, not any single filing. When the rest of New York went up
