2221 East 69 Street was built in 2003 — roughly 23 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 $9,833 per year ($819/month) before any abatements or exemptions the owner may receive. City records show it last changed hands for $1,052,000 in Jun 2026.
The building already exceeds what current residential zoning would allow (0.91 built FAR vs. a residential maximum of 0.75) — typically a grandfathered or overbuilt structure that could not be rebuilt to this size under today’s rules. Those figures are for residential use — a community-facility use (a doctor’s office, clinic, or school) raises the ceiling to 1.00 FAR. It sits in FEMA flood zone AE — lenders typically require separate flood insurance here, and real storm exposure runs higher than the effective maps (last remapped citywide in 2007) suggest.
