Completed in 1940, 601 West 50 St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 10 units and 103,788 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M2-4. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $24.4M, and assessed for tax at $11.0M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 533 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 224 of its 533 records, fully 42%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (83) and violation (74) 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 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 1.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 17 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 42% permit, 58 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.

$24.4M of New York, written across 533 government filings.
