Completed in 1986, 198 East 54 St rises 34 stories over New York. Public records put it at 35 units and 444,065 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.1M, and assessed for tax at $1.4M. In the 36 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 919 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 692 of its 919 records, fully 75%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (61) and enforcement (53) trail well behind. 10 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 posts an Energy Star score of 80, with a site energy-use intensity of 49.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,802 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 75% permit, 36 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.

75% of every record here performs the same act: permit.
