The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 82 of its 364 records, fully 23%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (79) and complaint (67) 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 2009.

Read together — 23% violation, 42 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.

$2.4M of New York, written across 364 government filings.
