Completed in 1940, 142 East 126 St rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 36 units and 35,179 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C4-4D. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.4M, and assessed for tax at $2.4M. In the 46 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,868 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,223 of its 3,868 records, fully 57%, fall under that one heading. Violation (995) and enforcement (299) trail well behind. 76 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 2015.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 75, with a site energy-use intensity of 108.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 284 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 57% complaint, 46 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.

$5.4M of New York, written across 3,868 government filings.
