Completed in 1896, 2020 Broadway rises 8 stories over New York. Public records put it at 64 units and 48,606 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C4-6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $11.8M, and assessed for tax at $5.3M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 877 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 415 of its 877 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Violation (197) and enforcement (80) trail well behind. 18 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 2004.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 1, with a site energy-use intensity of 147.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 531 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% complaint, 58 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.

$11.8M of New York, written across 877 government filings.
