Completed in 1927, 135 West 70 St rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 87 units and 98,110 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R8B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $284K, and assessed for tax at $128K. In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,700 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward mortgage: 363 of its 1,700 records, fully 21%, fall under that one heading. Permit (339) and sale (311) trail well behind. 10 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 1983.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 48, with a site energy-use intensity of 58.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 509 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 21% mortgage, 43 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.

$284K of New York, written across 1,700 government filings.
