Completed in 1910, 37 West 20 St rises 12 stories over New York. Public records put it at 51 units and 105,942 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-4A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $32.2M, and assessed for tax at $14.5M. In the 56 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 827 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 492 of its 827 records, fully 59%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (135) and violation (76) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 93, with a site energy-use intensity of 41.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 444 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 59% permit, 56 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.

$32.2M of New York, written across 827 government filings.
