Completed in 1928, 821 West 181 St rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 79 units and 84,037 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $9.2M, and assessed for tax at $4.2M. In the 67 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,298 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,280 of its 2,298 records, fully 56%, fall under that one heading. Violation (403) and inspection (245) trail well behind. 15 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 63, with a site energy-use intensity of 44.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 309 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 56% complaint, 67 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.

$9.2M of New York, written across 2,298 government filings.
