In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,463 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2021.

Read together — 39% complaint, 60 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.

$135M of New York, written across 1,463 government filings.
