The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 118 of its 445 records, fully 27%, fall under that one heading. Violation (96) and enforcement (95) trail well behind. 7 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 2009.

Read together — 27% permit, 39 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 445 government filings.
