Completed in 1905, 135 William St rises 16 stories over New York. Public records put it at 33 units and 76,988 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $16.1M, and assessed for tax at $7.3M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 655 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 150 of its 655 records, fully 23%, fall under that one heading. Permit (123) and violation (110) trail well behind. No 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 2007.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 42.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 225 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 23% inspection, 61 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.

$16.1M of New York, written across 655 government filings.
