Completed in 1987, 50 Lexington Ave rises 26 stories over New York. Public records put it at 191 units and 150,340 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $53.3M, and assessed for tax at $24.0M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 837 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 238 of its 837 records, fully 28%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (180) and complaint (143) 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 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 42, with a site energy-use intensity of 81.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 970 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 28% permit, 61 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.

$53.3M of New York, written across 837 government filings.
