It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $37.9M, and assessed for tax at $17.1M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 837 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 271 of its 837 records, fully 32%, fall under that one heading. Violation (187) and enforcement (177) trail well behind. 4 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 2008.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 86, with a site energy-use intensity of 63.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 613 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 32% permit, 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.

$37.9M of New York, written across 837 government filings.
