What has sold here

No transfer with a recorded consideration has been attached to this lot for 2003 onwards. That is common and it is not evidence that nothing changed hands. A building held by one owner since before 2003, a building transferred for no stated consideration, and a rental building that has simply never been sold all produce an empty record here. See how to read a sale history.

The building on the lot

Section through the lot

Drawn from PLUTO: 14 storeys, 200,300 sq ft of building on 76,450 sq ft of lot, an average floor plate covering 19% of it. PLUTO records 2 buildings on this lot, so the mass drawn is their combined floor area. The dashed outline is the difference between the floor area ratio already built (2.62) and the residential floor area ratio of the zoning district (3.44). It is a diagram of recorded figures, not a picture of the building.

Assessment

Assessed per residential unit

$69,280

Assessed value is the figure the Department of Finance uses to levy property tax. For a class two building it is derived from an income approach and it is capped in how fast it can rise. It is not a market valuation and the two figures routinely differ by a wide margin. What the assessment does and does not tell you.
