164 Court Street was built in 1860 — roughly 166 years old. For property-tax purposes it falls under Class 1 (one- to three-family homes), the class with the highest nominal rate (19.8433%) but assessments capped at 6% of market value with strict yearly growth limits. At the current assessment that works out to about $17,349 per year ($1,446/month) before any abatements or exemptions the owner may receive. City records show it last changed hands for $9,250,000 in Jun 2026.
City landmark records describe it as a row house dating to c. 1860, originally used as residential. It stands within the Cobble Hill Historic District.
The building uses about 82% of the residential density its zoning allows (2.00 built FAR vs. a residential maximum of 2.43) — roughly 872 sq ft of unused development rights, which can matter for renovations, expansions, or air-rights value. Those figures are for residential use — a community-facility use (a doctor’s office, clinic, or school) raises the ceiling to 4.80 FAR.
