It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $20.6M, and assessed for tax at $9.3M. In the 63 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 630 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 248 of its 630 records, fully 39%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (108) and violation (100) 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 2024.

Read together — 39% permit, 63 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.

$20.6M of New York, written across 630 government filings.
