Completed in 1930, 17 Lexington Ave rises 16 stories over New York. Public records put it at 3 units and 344,828 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R9A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $46.4M, and assessed for tax at $20.9M. In the 99 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,449 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 519 of its 1,449 records, fully 36%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (335) and violation (325) trail well behind. 47 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 is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 103.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,932 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 36% permit, 99 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.

$46.4M of New York, written across 1,449 government filings.
