Completed in 1926, 40 Arden St rises 5 stories over New York. Public records put it at 69 units and 58,030 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.7M, and assessed for tax at $2.1M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,823 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,025 of its 1,823 records, fully 56%, fall under that one heading. Violation (574) and enforcement (65) trail well behind. 114 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.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 16, with a site energy-use intensity of 131.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 606 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 56% complaint, 60 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.

$4.7M of New York, written across 1,823 government filings.
