Completed in 1979, 211 West 56 St rises 36 stories over New York. Public records put it at 406 units and 311,689 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $99.2M, and assessed for tax at $44.6M. In the 52 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 942 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 320 of its 942 records, fully 34%, fall under that one heading. Permit (178) and inspection (149) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 104.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,023 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 34% violation, 52 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.

$99.2M of New York, written across 942 government filings.
