Completed in 1846, 280 Broadway rises 7 stories over New York. Public records put it at 5 units and 239,671 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $90.5M, and assessed for tax at $40.7M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,850 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 1,530 of its 3,850 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (1,326) and permit (566) trail well behind. 104 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 posts an Energy Star score of 14, with a site energy-use intensity of 128.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,898 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% violation, 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.

$90.5M of New York, written across 3,850 government filings.
