Completed in 1900, 120 Liberty St rises 13 stories over New York. Public records put it at 22 units and 57,945 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $8.1M, and assessed for tax at $3.6M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 867 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 227 of its 867 records, fully 26%, fall under that one heading. Violation (174) and inspection (160) trail well behind. 14 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 2022.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 87, with a site energy-use intensity of 66.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 321 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 26% permit, 59 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.

$8.1M of New York, written across 867 government filings.
