Completed in 1975, 2 Madison St rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 305,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $88.9M, and assessed for tax at $40.0M. In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 882 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 331 of its 882 records, fully 38%, fall under that one heading. Violation (228) and enforcement (157) trail well behind. 17 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 44, with a site energy-use intensity of 76.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,373 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 38% permit, 55 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.

$88.9M of New York, written across 882 government filings.
