The pace is anything but even. Activity is spread across the decades, with 2025 the busiest year on file.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 60, with a site energy-use intensity of 65.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 945 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 67% permit, 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.

67% of every record here performs the same act: permit.
