It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.6M, and assessed for tax at $1.6M. In the 70 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,303 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 588 of its 1,303 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (494) and enforcement (63) trail well behind. 41 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 31, with a site energy-use intensity of 117.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 333 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% violation, 70 years of accumulation, a parcel of Bronx — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.6M of Bronx, written across 1,303 government filings.
