In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 902 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

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 67, with a site energy-use intensity of 74.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,306 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 35% complaint, 55 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.

$29.8M of New York, written across 902 government filings.
