Completed in 1967, 121 East 55 St rises 9 stories over New York. Public records put it at 2 units and 46,204 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $15.3M, and assessed for tax at $6.9M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 575 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 206 of its 575 records, fully 36%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (121) and violation (88) trail well behind. No 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 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 8, with a site energy-use intensity of 60.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 302 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 36% permit, 58 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.

$15.3M of New York, written across 575 government filings.
