Completed in 1925, 15 East 31 St rises 8 stories over New York. Public records put it at 8 units and 13,726 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.1M, and assessed for tax at $502K. In the 41 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,201 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2016.

Read together — 46% complaint, 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.

$1.1M of New York, written across 1,201 government filings.
