Completed in 1922, 500 8 Ave rises 12 stories over New York. Public records put it at 28 units and 243,350 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-9A/R12. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $51.4M, and assessed for tax at $23.2M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,236 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 390 of its 1,236 records, fully 32%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (246) and inspection (232) trail well behind. 8 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 51.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,227 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 32% permit, 59 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.

$51.4M of New York, written across 1,236 government filings.
