In the 103 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,084 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 524 of its 1,084 records, fully 48%, fall under that one heading. Violation (414) and inspection (55) trail well behind. 41 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 78, with a site energy-use intensity of 100.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 228 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 48% complaint, 103 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.

$2.4M of New York, written across 1,084 government filings.
