Completed in 1902, 17 Battery Pl rises 31 stories over New York. Public records put it at 623 units and 1,202,417 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $131M, and assessed for tax at $58.8M. In the 67 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 4,529 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 1,305 of its 4,529 records, fully 29%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (952) and violation (751) trail well behind. 7 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 48, with a site energy-use intensity of 60.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 8,726 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 29% permit, 67 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.

$131M of New York, written across 4,529 government filings.
