It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $105M, and assessed for tax at $47.0M. In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,830 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 46, with a site energy-use intensity of 129.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 3,376 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 38% enforcement, 43 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.

$105M of New York, written across 1,830 government filings.
