Completed in 1902, 137 5 Ave rises 12 stories over New York. Public records put it at 12 units and 38,650 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4M. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $9.1M, and assessed for tax at $4.1M. In the 125 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 405 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 134 of its 405 records, fully 33%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (76) and permit (74) trail well behind. 26 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 71, with a site energy-use intensity of 62.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 218 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 33% inspection, 125 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.

$9.1M of New York, written across 405 government filings.
