It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $56.8M, and assessed for tax at $25.6M. In the 64 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 873 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 471 of its 873 records, fully 54%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (157) and violation (117) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 2006.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 82, with a site energy-use intensity of 48.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,312 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 54% permit, 64 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.

$56.8M of New York, written across 873 government filings.
