225 East 57 Street was built in 1964 — roughly 62 years old. For property-tax purposes it falls under Class 2 (residential buildings with four or more units, condos and co-ops), taxed at 12.439% of a taxable value based on 45% of the city’s income-derived market value.
The building already exceeds what current zoning would allow (12.76 built FAR vs. a maximum of 10.00) — typically a grandfathered or overbuilt structure that could not be rebuilt to this size under today’s rules. With 265 units in a building of this age, some apartments are likely rent-stabilized — worth verifying with DHCR before purchase.
