Completed in 1910, 261 West 21 St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 37 units and 32,325 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C1-6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $15.8M, and assessed for tax at $7.1M. In the 67 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 515 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 147 of its 515 records, fully 29%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (113) and violation (102) trail well behind. 49 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 51, with a site energy-use intensity of 96.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 265 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 29% permit, 67 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.

$15.8M of New York, written across 515 government filings.
