Completed in 1930, 303 West 35 St rises 25 stories over New York. Public records put it at 59 units and 266,912 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-9A/R12. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $63.5M, and assessed for tax at $28.6M. In the 76 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 950 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 377 of its 950 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Violation (177) and inspection (171) trail well behind. No 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 posts an Energy Star score of 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 60.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,457 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% permit, 76 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.

$63.5M of New York, written across 950 government filings.
