Completed in 1920, 516 West 143 St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 41 units and 41,292 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.7M, and assessed for tax at $785K. In the 56 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,656 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,016 of its 3,656 records, fully 55%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,327) and enforcement (123) trail well behind. 108 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 2013.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 28, with a site energy-use intensity of 104.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 271 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 55% complaint, 56 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.

$1.7M of New York, written across 3,656 government filings.
