Estimates are the taxable value after exemptions times the Class 4 rate of 10.848% (tax year 2025/26, the latest the city lists), divided by the building's floor area in PLUTO. They leave out abatements such as ICAP, payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreements and charges, so actual bills differ. Large buildings only (35,000 SF and up in Manhattan).

How much are commercial property taxes in the Financial District?
On the Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll, the 93 large commercial buildings Leasemark tracks in the Financial District that pay property tax come to a median of about $9.38 per square foot of floor area a year, with the middle half between $7.93 and $11.04. That is the taxable value after exemptions times the Class 4 rate of 10.848% (tax year 2025/26, the latest the city lists), before abatements such as ICAP. The largest estimated bill is 55 Water Street, 43 Water Street, about $29.1 million a year. 18 more buildings are fully exempt. Many office leases pass a tenant's share of increases over a base year through as additional rent.
How much build-out work is happening in the Financial District?
In the 12 months to October 2026, the Department of Buildings issued first permits for 361 interior build-outs in 79 of the 111 large commercial buildings Leasemark tracks in the Financial District, with work permitted on 807 floors in all. Their filed cost estimates add up to about $1002 million. The most were at 200 Liberty Street (19 build-outs). A build-out here is interior work on the same floors (construction, mechanical, plumbing, sprinklers and the like) first permitted within 120 days. New interior work usually follows a lease, so it is a rough sign of where tenants are moving in, but a permit does not say who the work is for.
Do tenants in the Financial District pay the NYC Commercial Rent Tax?
Yes, for larger leases. The Financial District is in Manhattan below 96th Street, where the city's Commercial Rent Tax applies. A tenant owes it only when base rent for the space is $250,000 a year or more. The tax is 6% of base rent after a 35% reduction, so 3.9% of rent, with a sliding credit between $250,000 and $300,000, and the Small Business Tax Credit wipes it out for businesses with total income of $5 million or less and base rent under $500,000. Lower Manhattan has its own rules: stores south of Murray, Frankfort and Dover Streets and premises in the World Trade Center area pay nothing, and some new leases in eligible buildings south of Canal Street get a special reduction.
Is it free to post on Leasemark?
Yes. Posting a space or a requirement is free. Contact details are only shared when both sides accept an intro.
