In the 117 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,274 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 548 of its 1,274 records, fully 43%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (342) and enforcement (153) trail well behind. 180 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 55, with a site energy-use intensity of 95.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 252 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 43% violation, 117 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.

$5.6M of New York, written across 1,274 government filings.
