It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $58.2M, and assessed for tax at $26.2M. In the 51 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,376 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2005.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 72, with a site energy-use intensity of 49.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,159 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 55% permit, 51 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.

$58.2M of New York, written across 1,376 government filings.
