In the 56 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,435 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 51, with a site energy-use intensity of 76.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 2,041 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 46% permit, 56 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.

$142M of New York, written across 1,435 government filings.
