Completed in 1916, 181 Vermilyea Ave rises 5 stories over New York. Public records put it at 40 units and 31,500 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.9M, and assessed for tax at $836K. In the 57 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,218 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 576 of its 1,218 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Violation (425) and enforcement (84) trail well behind. 130 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 2012.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 40, with a site energy-use intensity of 111.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 280 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% complaint, 57 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.

$1.9M of New York, written across 1,218 government filings.
