It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $29.0M, and assessed for tax at $13.1M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 647 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 169 of its 647 records, fully 26%, fall under that one heading. Violation (127) and enforcement (87) trail well behind. 3 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 2022.

Read together — 26% 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.

$29.0M of New York, written across 647 government filings.
