The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2016.

Read together — 55% permit, 42 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.

$3.9M of New York, written across 398 government filings.
