Completed in 1923, 1561 St Nicholas Ave rises 5 stories over New York. Public records put it at 46 units and 39,066 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.2M, and assessed for tax at $1.5M. In the 36 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 364 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 147 of its 364 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Violation (100) and inspection (37) 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 1990.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 73, with a site energy-use intensity of 79.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 205 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% complaint, 36 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.

$3.2M of New York, written across 364 government filings.
