142-08 56 Road was built in 1930 — roughly 96 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 $6,825 per year ($569/month) before any abatements or exemptions the owner may receive. City records show it last changed hands for $998,000 in Jun 2026.
The building uses about 40% of the residential density its zoning allows (0.40 built FAR vs. a residential maximum of 1.00) — roughly 1,320 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 2.00 FAR.
