Completed in 1967, 2520 Amsterdam Ave rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 1 unit and 140,260 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $15.2M, and assessed for tax at $6.8M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 359 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 124 of its 359 records, fully 35%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (71) and violation (40) 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 19.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 422 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 35% permit, 58 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.

$15.2M of New York, written across 359 government filings.
