It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.3M, and assessed for tax at $1.9M. In the 117 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,327 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 688 of its 1,327 records, fully 52%, fall under that one heading. Violation (265) and enforcement (136) trail well behind. 5 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 2009.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 4, with a site energy-use intensity of 124.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 401 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 52% complaint, 117 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.

$4.3M of New York, written across 1,327 government filings.
