Completed in 1969, 77 Water St rises 26 stories over New York. Public records put it at 35 units and 541,568 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C6-9. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $148M, and assessed for tax at $66.6M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,058 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 1,112 of its 2,058 records, fully 54%, fall under that one heading. Inspection (324) and enforcement (227) 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 30, with a site energy-use intensity of 129.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 5,341 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 54% 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.

$148M of New York, written across 2,058 government filings.
