Completed in 1998, 401 West 59 St rises 40 stories over New York. Public records put it at 134 units and 199,773 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C4-7. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $287K, and assessed for tax at $129K. In the 1827 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,666 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward mortgage: 389 of its 1,666 records, fully 23%, fall under that one heading. Sale (318) and release (313) 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 2003.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 53, with a site energy-use intensity of 64.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,317 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 23% mortgage, 1827 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.

$287K of New York, written across 1,666 government filings.
