Completed in 1920, 4720 Broadway rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 52 units and 52,378 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.9M, and assessed for tax at $2.2M. In the 91 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,174 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 705 of its 1,174 records, fully 60%, fall under that one heading. Violation (263) and inspection (69) trail well behind. 44 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 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 34, with a site energy-use intensity of 100.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 312 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 60% complaint, 91 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.

$4.9M of New York, written across 1,174 government filings.
