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 85.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 264 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 29% permit, 41 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.

$3.5M of New York, written across 678 government filings.
