It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.9M, and assessed for tax at $3.1M. In the 48 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 5,383 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 2,400 of its 5,383 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (2,349) and inspection (278) trail well behind. 272 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 74, with a site energy-use intensity of 69.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 770 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% violation, 48 years of accumulation, a parcel of Bronx — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.9M of Bronx, written across 5,383 government filings.
