Completed in 1914, 103 East 86 St rises 13 stories over New York. Public records put it at 51 units and 91,260 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R10. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $26.1M, and assessed for tax at $11.7M. In the 57 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 permit: 214 of its 873 records, fully 25%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (210) and violation (164) trail well behind. 22 violations stand 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 2014.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 48, with a site energy-use intensity of 94.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 549 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 25% permit, 57 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.

$26.1M of New York, written across 873 government filings.
