Completed in 1903, 170 Broadway rises 19 stories over New York. Public records put it at 244 units and 148,239 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $32.7M, and assessed for tax at $14.7M. In the 124 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,224 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 448 of its 1,224 records, fully 37%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (235) and violation (182) 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 2013.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 54, with a site energy-use intensity of 80.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,093 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 37% permit, 124 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.

$32.7M of New York, written across 1,224 government filings.
