Completed in 1909, 287 Edgecombe Ave rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 24 units and 27,870 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R8A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.1M, and assessed for tax at $959K. In the 110 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,111 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 504 of its 1,111 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (369) and enforcement (61) trail well behind. 27 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 2012.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 70, with a site energy-use intensity of 95.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 163 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 110 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.

$2.1M of New York, written across 1,111 government filings.
