My great grandfather Judah Levy (born ~1835) emigrated to NYC >from London ~1860. Family story says he owned several "blocks" of property in Harlem sometime between 1860-1890. Can anyone tell me how I should go about tracking this down. I live in PA. Are there NYC property records online? I have two of his home addresses during that period but suspect that the owned property may have been undeveloped property. But that is only a "feeling" I have.
