Completed in 1900, 640 Broadway rises 9 stories over New York. Public records put it at 22 units and 53,439 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-5/R9A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.8M, and assessed for tax at $3.1M. In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,149 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 427 of its 1,149 records, fully 37%, fall under that one heading. Violation (193) and complaint (166) 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 2010.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 15, with a site energy-use intensity of 90.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 444 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 37% permit, 43 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.

$6.8M of New York, written across 1,149 government filings.
