Completed in 1989, 246 East Houston St rises 13 stories over New York. Public records put it at 133 units and 122,416 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R8A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $37.0M, and assessed for tax at $16.7M. In the 38 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,315 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 342 of its 1,315 records, fully 26%, fall under that one heading. Permit (330) and enforcement (264) trail well behind. 59 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 67, with a site energy-use intensity of 55.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 681 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 26% complaint, 38 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.

$37.0M of New York, written across 1,315 government filings.
