The city's property file lists ESPLANADE GARDENS INC. as the owner of record for 700 Esplanade Gdns Plaza. No deed for this lot appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds, so that name comes from the tax roll rather than from a recorded transfer.
Has 700 Esplanade Gdns Plaza changed hands recently?

Is 700 Esplanade Gdns Plaza rent stabilized?

What is 700 Esplanade Gdns Plaza assessed at for property taxes?
