Completed in 1958, 315 East 72 St rises 21 stories over New York. Public records put it at 219 units and 276,481 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R8B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $76.1M, and assessed for tax at $34.2M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 981 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 529 of its 981 records, fully 54%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (149) and violation (73) trail well behind. 17 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 70, with a site energy-use intensity of 59.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,101 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 54% permit, 58 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.

$76.1M of New York, written across 981 government filings.
