Completed in 1940, 21 East 53 St rises 2 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 2 units and 2,200 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $891K, and assessed for tax at $53.5K. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 40 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward sale: 10 of its 40 records, fully 25%, fall under that one heading. Mortgage (8) and release (5) trail well behind. 1 violation stands open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 1985.

Read together — 25% sale, 58 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$891K of Kings, written across 40 government filings.
