Completed in 1960, 243 East 51 St rises 20 stories over New York. Public records put it at 195 units and 206,945 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C1-9. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $52.2M, and assessed for tax at $23.5M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 860 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 340 of its 860 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (180) and violation (90) 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 2007.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 68, with a site energy-use intensity of 62.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 941 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% 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.

$52.2M of New York, written across 860 government filings.
