Completed in 1955, 453 Fdr Dr rises 20 stories over New York. Public records put it at 837 units and 923,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $181M, and assessed for tax at $81.3M. In the 45 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,987 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 1,011 of its 1,987 records, fully 51%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (356) and violation (273) trail well behind. 64 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 8, with a site energy-use intensity of 57.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 3,611 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 51% permit, 45 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.

$181M of New York, written across 1,987 government filings.
