Completed in 1937, 5 West 86 St rises 20 stories over New York. Public records put it at 80 units and 116,021 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R10A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $20.5M, and assessed for tax at $9.2M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,439 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward inspection: 608 of its 1,439 records, fully 42%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (368) and violation (177) trail well behind. 16 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 81, with a site energy-use intensity of 63.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 505 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 42% inspection, 60 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.

$20.5M of New York, written across 1,439 government filings.
