It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.6M, and assessed for tax at $2.1M. In the 57 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,111 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 1,556 of its 3,111 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (1,267) and inspection (101) trail well behind. 410 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 77, with a site energy-use intensity of 66.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 517 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% violation, 57 years of accumulation, a parcel of Bronx — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.6M of Bronx, written across 3,111 government filings.
