47records on file

Completed in 1926, 1053 Metropolitan Ave rises 1 story over Kings. Public records put it at 2 units and 35,870 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.7M, and assessed for tax at $2.1M. In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 47 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 14 of its 47 records, fully 30%, fall under that one heading. Assignment (8) and mortgage (7) trail well behind. 2 violations stand open against it today.

The pace is anything but even. The record runs hot early and quiets with age, with 1987 its single busiest year.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 42.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 106 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 30% enforcement, 43 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.7M of Kings, written across 47 government filings.
