It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $255M, and assessed for tax at $115M. In the 41 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,303 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 2,103 of its 3,303 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (476) and enforcement (397) trail well behind. 144 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 80, with a site energy-use intensity of 61.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 4,250 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% permit, 41 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.

$255M of New York, written across 3,303 government filings.
