Completed in 1921, 286 West Houston St rises 9 stories over New York. Public records put it at 2 units and 579,930 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $197M, and assessed for tax at $88.8M. In the 39 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,823 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 915 of its 1,823 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (552) and enforcement (141) trail well behind. 2 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 93, with a site energy-use intensity of 72.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 5,788 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% permit, 39 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.

$197M of New York, written across 1,823 government filings.
