Completed in 1989, 546 5 Ave rises 22 stories over New York. Public records put it at 1 unit and 180,524 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-3. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $65.6M, and assessed for tax at $29.5M. In the 52 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,112 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 631 of its 1,112 records, fully 57%, fall under that one heading. Violation (174) and enforcement (130) trail well behind. 43 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 1997.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 66, with a site energy-use intensity of 65.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,243 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 57% permit, 52 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.

$65.6M of New York, written across 1,112 government filings.
