Completed in 1904, 240 West 37 St rises 10 stories over New York. Public records put it at 42 units and 130,766 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-9A. 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 919 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 258 of its 919 records, fully 28%, fall under that one heading. Violation (182) and enforcement (176) 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 2016.

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 — 28% 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 919 government filings.
