Completed in 1921, 839 Riverside Dr rises 6 stories over New York. Public records put it at 48 units and 58,764 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R8. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $7.9M, and assessed for tax at $3.6M. In the 104 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 824 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 415 of its 824 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Violation (176) and enforcement (67) trail well behind. 37 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 2004.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 1, with a site energy-use intensity of 180.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 606 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% complaint, 104 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.

$7.9M of New York, written across 824 government filings.
