The area around E. 53rd St & Third Avenue in New York City has now changed considerably since the song was written in the 1970s. In the 1990s, police crackdowns saw an end to nighttime male prostitution activites in the area.

According to Wikipedia:
" Written solely by Dee Dee Ramone, the lyrics of "53rd & 3rd" concern a male prostitute ("rent boy"), waiting at the corner of 53rd Street and Third Avenue in Midtown Manhattan.
In interviews, Dee Dee described the piece as autobiographical. "The song speaks for itself," Dee Dee commented in an interview. "Everything I write is autobiographical and written in a very real way, I can't even write." According to Danny Fields, "Johnny Ramone would never admit to knowing that '53rd and 3rd' was about Dee Dee turning tricks!"

According to songfacts.com:
"The corner of 53rd Street and 3rd Avenue in Manhattan, New York, is a real place that was once frequented by young male prostitutes trying to turn a trick. The area was a section of what was known as "the Loop," which also boasted gay bars such as Rounds and Red. In 1994, a crackdown by police with heavy support from the neighborhood saw an end to the area's nighttime activities, and despite protests by gay advocate groups, many arrests were made and the bars were shuttered."
