Completed in 1900, 194 Lafayette St rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 2 units and 81,696 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-5/R7D. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $18.6M, and assessed for tax at $8.4M. In the 81 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,202 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 562 of its 1,202 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (177) and violation (146) trail well behind. 2 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 29, with a site energy-use intensity of 92.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,192 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% permit, 81 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.

$18.6M of New York, written across 1,202 government filings.
