Completed in 2015, 55 West 53 St rises 73 stories over New York. Public records put it at 525,820 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.1M, and assessed for tax at $1.8M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 541 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 213 of its 541 records, fully 39%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (71) and violation (53) trail well behind. No 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 2, with a site energy-use intensity of 80.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 5,115 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 39% permit, 60 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.

$4.1M of New York, written across 541 government filings.
