Completed in 1925, 437 Lexington Ave rises 18 stories over New York. Public records put it at 1 unit and 97,075 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-3. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $27.8M, and assessed for tax at $12.5M. In the 53 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 817 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 375 of its 817 records, fully 46%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (190) and enforcement (108) 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 60, with a site energy-use intensity of 86.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 752 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 46% permit, 53 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.

$27.8M of New York, written across 817 government filings.
