Completed in 1890, 148 5 Ave rises 11 stories over New York. Public records put it at 25 units and 187,536 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4M. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $135M, and assessed for tax at $60.7M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,307 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 710 of its 1,307 records, fully 54%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (197) and enforcement (167) trail well behind. No 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 2002.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 81, with a site energy-use intensity of 55.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,163 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 54% permit, 58 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.

$135M of New York, written across 1,307 government filings.
