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: 5 storeys, 14,495 sq ft of building on 4,500 sq ft of lot, an average floor plate covering 64% of it. The dashed outline is the difference between the floor area ratio already built (3.22) and the residential floor area ratio of the zoning district (10). It is a diagram of recorded figures, not a picture of the building.

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.
