Completed in 1936, 55 Cooper St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 49 units and 42,874 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.7M, and assessed for tax at $2.1M. In the 90 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 980 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 535 of its 980 records, fully 55%, fall under that one heading. Violation (210) and permit (81) trail well behind. 6 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 2006.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 73.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 199 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 55% complaint, 90 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.

$4.7M of New York, written across 980 government filings.
