The lot

What is already here?

The lot holds a 16-story elevator apartment building built in 1928, with 37 homes, on a 9,195 sq ft lot.

  1. Floors 2–16Homes37 homes are recorded on this lot — about 2 homes to a floor, and the apartments assessed on this block run to a typical 545 sq ft (51 m²). The city does not publish which floor any of them is on.

  • Above the southern skylineFrom about floor 33 — the tallest thing within 60 m to the south is 96.7 m
Drawn from the outline and roof height the Department of City Planning publishes for this building: 59.7 m over 16 floors, as the city counts them. 2 runs of floors have 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

278 condominium apartments are assessed on this block, and the typical one is 545 sq ft (51 m²). They run from 21 to 137 m².

The city values the typical one at $184,458. That is the Department of Finance’s market valuation for tax, not an asking price and not a sale.

What it sold for

21 apartments on this tax block changed hands in the year the city last published, at a median of $1,792,750, from 475,000 to 18,250,000.

The property itself last changed hands for $4,600,000 on Oct 23, 2025.

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.

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.

Read from the brokerages’ own published listings on September 25, 2026. A home drops off this table the next time they publish a list without it — usually because it sold or let, though a listing can also expire or be withdrawn. What we know is that it is no longer offered, which is why this shows what they have today rather than what we were told once. Everything on the market across the city.

What is recorded here

Multiple filings, one stable building identifier.

New York City's Building Identification Number helps connect filings that may use different application numbers or describe different scopes of work. The records below are grouped because they publish BIN 1042849. They should not be read as a single construction project unless the underlying filings say so.

The matched set includes 9 alteration filing. Its latest status categories are 7 approved, 2 recorded as completed. Each filing page preserves its own status, dates, scope and source identifier.
