  (a) In addition to the tax imposed by section fourteen hundred two  of
this  article, a tax is hereby imposed on each conveyance of residential
real property or interest therein when: (I) IN CITIES WITH A  POPULATION

one  million dollars or more; OR (II) IN CITIES WITH A POPULATION OF ONE
MILLION OR MORE, THE CONSIDERATION FOR  THE  ENTIRE  CONVEYANCE  IS  ONE

this section, residential real property shall include any premises  that
is or may be used in whole or in part as a personal residence, and shall
include  a  one,  two,  or three-family house, an individual condominium
unit, or a cooperative apartment unit. The rate of such tax shall be one
percent of the consideration or part thereof attributable to  the  resi-
dential  real  property.  Such tax shall be paid at the same time and in
the same manner as the tax imposed by section fourteen  hundred  two  of
this article.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
