Tax parcel lookup for New York County — the island of Manhattan
Manhattan is one of New York City's five boroughs — legally New York County, one of the original counties named when New York State was organized. It's the smallest of the five boroughs by land area but the most densely built, dominated by large multi-unit apartment and office buildings rather than the smaller lots typical elsewhere in the state.
Because so much of Manhattan is built up in large multi-unit buildings rather than individually platted lots, NY Property Peek's dataset has fewer distinct tax parcels here than in other, more spread-out counties — a little over 42,000 — but each still includes details like year built, square footage, and property class where available, pulled from New York State's statewide tax parcel records.

Every figure above is counted directly from the 42,061 Manhattan records in this site's copy of New York State's statewide tax parcel dataset — none of it is estimated or modelled. Manhattan's records in this dataset do not populate full market value, property class, and school district, so they are left out rather than guessed. Assessment records are a snapshot of what each assessor filed, so an individual parcel can be out of date or incomplete. Nothing here is a title search or a legal description of a property.
