Completed in 1907, 2 Rector St rises 26 stories over New York. Public records put it at 69 units and 400,294 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $84.9M, and assessed for tax at $38.2M. In the 57 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,473 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 731 of its 1,473 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Violation (238) and enforcement (180) 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 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 90, with a site energy-use intensity of 30.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,467 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% permit, 57 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.

$84.9M of New York, written across 1,473 government filings.
