The lot at 1 East 38 St rises 54 stories over New York. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $669K, and assessed for tax at $301K. In the 37 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 873 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward sale: 215 of its 873 records, fully 25%, fall under that one heading. Permit (182) and release (146) trail well behind. 1 violation stands open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The record runs hot early and quiets with age, with 2004 its single busiest year.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 57, with a site energy-use intensity of 61.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,238 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 25% sale, 37 years of accumulation, a parcel of New York — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$669K of New York, written across 873 government filings.
