Completed in 1993, 199 Water St rises 35 stories over New York. Public records put it at 36 units and 744,146 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-3. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $625K, and assessed for tax at $281K. In the 44 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,310 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 2,076 of its 3,310 records, fully 63%, fall under that one heading. Assignment (285) and violation (199) trail well behind. No 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 2006.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 79, with a site energy-use intensity of 55.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 5,708 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 63% permit, 44 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.

$625K of New York, written across 3,310 government filings.
