Completed in 2007, 779 Columbus Ave rises 15 stories over New York. Public records put it at 138 units and 232,452 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $50.7M, and assessed for tax at $22.8M. In the 34 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,272 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 403 of its 1,272 records, fully 32%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (243) and violation (225) trail well behind. 47 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 1, with a site energy-use intensity of 94.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,012 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 32% permit, 34 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.

$50.7M of New York, written across 1,272 government filings.
