Completed in 1939, 847 2 Ave rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 93 units and 70,592 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C1-9. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $15.7M, and assessed for tax at $7.1M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 820 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 287 of its 820 records, fully 35%, fall under that one heading. Violation (191) and permit (128) trail well behind. 52 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 14, with a site energy-use intensity of 117.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 698 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 35% complaint, 61 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.

$15.7M of New York, written across 820 government filings.
