Completed in 1923, 11 East 85 St rises 15 stories over New York. Public records put it at 360 units and 472,600 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $127M, and assessed for tax at $56.9M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,642 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 534 of its 1,642 records, fully 33%, fall under that one heading. Permit (455) and violation (221) trail well behind. 7 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 31, with a site energy-use intensity of 82.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,643 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 33% complaint, 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.

$127M of New York, written across 1,642 government filings.
