Completed in 1901, 140 5 Ave rises 12 stories over New York. Public records put it at 27 units and 42,845 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4M. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $364K, and assessed for tax at $164K. In the 45 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 952 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 216 of its 952 records, fully 23%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (191) and assignment (156) trail well behind. 9 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 1, with a site energy-use intensity of 211.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 719 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 23% permit, 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.

$364K of New York, written across 952 government filings.
