Completed in 1997, 400 West 59 St rises 49 stories over New York. Public records put it at 736 units and 919,877 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C4-7. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $260M, and assessed for tax at $117M. In the 38 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,436 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 645 of its 1,436 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Permit (275) and violation (141) trail well behind. 6 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 25, with a site energy-use intensity of 84.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 5,460 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% inspection, 38 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.

$260M of New York, written across 1,436 government filings.
