The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 175 of its 500 records, fully 35%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (74) and enforcement (64) trail well behind. 4 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 51, with a site energy-use intensity of 84.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,128 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 35% permit, 37 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.

$38.4M of New York, written across 500 government filings.
