A RegWatch Dossier

50records on file

Completed in 2017, 40 Lexington Ave rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 17,928 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $400K, and assessed for tax at $180K. In the 9 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 50 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward assignment: 12 of its 50 records, fully 24%, fall under that one heading. Release (8) and mortgage (7) trail well behind. No violations stand open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The record runs hot early and quiets with age, with 2019 its single busiest year.

Read together — 24% assignment, 9 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$400K of Kings, written across 50 government filings.
