Completed in 1915, 530 West 157 St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 30 units and 42,506 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.8M, and assessed for tax at $1.2M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,320 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 783 of its 1,320 records, fully 59%, fall under that one heading. Violation (278) and permit (68) trail well behind. 5 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 2010.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 14.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 65 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 59% complaint, 61 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.

$2.8M of New York, written across 1,320 government filings.
