Completed in 1964, 517 East 71 St rises 18 stories over New York. Public records put it at 248 units and 188,446 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R9. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $53.7M, and assessed for tax at $24.2M. In the 50 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 880 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 381 of its 880 records, fully 43%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (180) and violation (111) trail well behind. 15 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 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 32.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 493 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 43% permit, 50 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.

$53.7M of New York, written across 880 government filings.
