In the 52 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,366 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,406 of its 2,366 records, fully 59%, fall under that one heading. Violation (567) and inspection (127) trail well behind. 79 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 2019.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 43, with a site energy-use intensity of 75.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 920 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 59% complaint, 52 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.

$12.0M of New York, written across 2,366 government filings.
