It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $38.6M, and assessed for tax at $17.4M. In the 57 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,115 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 676 of its 1,115 records, fully 61%, fall under that one heading. Permit (235) and violation (47) trail well behind. 6 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 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 39, with a site energy-use intensity of 80.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 723 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 61% inspection, 57 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.

$38.6M of New York, written across 1,115 government filings.
