305 West 86 Street was built in 1926 — roughly 100 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. At the current assessment that works out to about $850,171 per year ($70,848/month) before any abatements or exemptions the owner may receive. City records show it last changed hands for $1,470,000 in Jun 2026.
City landmark records describe it as a Renaissance Revival apartment building dating to 1925 - 1926, originally used as residential, multi-family. It was designed by Deutsch & Schneider for 305 West 86th Street Holding Corporation. It stands within the Riverside-West End Historic District Extension I.
The building already exceeds what current zoning would allow (10.63 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. This lot is associated with a co-op; individual apartments are owned as shares and taxed through the building.
