In the 77 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,980 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,503 of its 2,980 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,241) and enforcement (78) trail well behind. 191 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 23, with a site energy-use intensity of 112.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 684 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% complaint, 77 years of accumulation, a parcel of Bronx — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$9.1M of Bronx, written across 2,980 government filings.
