Completed in 1971, 111 East 85 St rises 30 stories over New York. Public records put it at 162 units and 211,406 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-1A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $63.7M, and assessed for tax at $28.7M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,018 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 497 of its 1,018 records, fully 49%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (135) and inspection (123) trail well behind. 31 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 74, with a site energy-use intensity of 53.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 953 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 49% permit, 60 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.

$63.7M of New York, written across 1,018 government filings.
