It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $29.3M, and assessed for tax at $13.2M. In the 41 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 377 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 152 of its 377 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Permit (99) and violation (45) trail well behind. 3 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 51, with a site energy-use intensity of 62.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 481 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% inspection, 41 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.

$29.3M of New York, written across 377 government filings.
