Completed in 1931, 21 West St rises 31 stories over New York. Public records put it at 295 units and 335,746 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $68.5M, and assessed for tax at $30.8M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 875 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 362 of its 875 records, fully 41%, fall under that one heading. Permit (135) and violation (111) trail well behind. 6 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 31, with a site energy-use intensity of 61.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,759 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 41% inspection, 59 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.

$68.5M of New York, written across 875 government filings.
