Completed in 1947, 116 East 79 St rises 20 stories over New York. Public records put it at 80 units and 77,953 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R10A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $20.7M, and assessed for tax at $9.3M. In the 69 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 834 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 258 of its 834 records, fully 31%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (220) and inspection (156) trail well behind. 5 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 2013.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 66, with a site energy-use intensity of 77.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 396 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 31% permit, 69 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.

$20.7M of New York, written across 834 government filings.
