Completed in 1985, 1262 Lexington Ave rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 26 units and 27,935 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-1A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $12.2M, and assessed for tax at $5.5M. In the 45 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,118 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 954 of its 2,118 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (710) and permit (198) trail well behind. 101 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 2, with a site energy-use intensity of 102.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 216 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 45 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.

$12.2M of New York, written across 2,118 government filings.
