The lot at 33 East 42 St rises 22 stories over New York. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $131M, and assessed for tax at $59.1M. In the 98 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,304 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 43, with a site energy-use intensity of 117.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 16,184 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 58% permit, 98 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.

$131M of New York, written across 1,304 government filings.
