Completed in 1924, 2 Lexington Ave rises 16 stories over New York. Public records put it at 24 units and 188,933 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R9A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $65.9M, and assessed for tax at $29.7M. In the 74 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,013 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 391 of its 1,013 records, fully 39%, fall under that one heading. Violation (154) and enforcement (137) trail well behind. 3 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 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 77, with a site energy-use intensity of 61.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 998 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 39% permit, 74 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.

$65.9M of New York, written across 1,013 government filings.
