In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,213 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 57.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,453 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 49% permit, 43 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.

$34.9M of New York, written across 1,213 government filings.
