Completed in 2008, 15916 Union Turnpike rises 3 stories over Queens. Public records put it at 17 units and 37,814 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R5D. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.8M, and assessed for tax at $2.2M. In the 66 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 203 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 53 of its 203 records, fully 26%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (40) and violation (33) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 2008.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 95, with a site energy-use intensity of 42.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 135 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 26% permit, 66 years of accumulation, a parcel of Queens — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.8M of Queens, written across 203 government filings.
