Completed in 2004, 406 East 79 St rises 20 stories over New York. Public records put it at 87,450 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R10A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.5M, and assessed for tax at $686K. In the 37 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 880 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward release: 273 of its 880 records, fully 31%, fall under that one heading. Sale (138) and permit (130) trail well behind. 16 violations stand open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The record runs hot early and quiets with age, with 2006 its single busiest year.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 19, with a site energy-use intensity of 77.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 651 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 31% release, 37 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.

$1.5M of New York, written across 880 government filings.
