Completed in 1925, 115 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 99 units and 107,027 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $8.7M, and assessed for tax at $3.9M. In the 51 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 4,493 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,463 of its 4,493 records, fully 55%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,703) and permit (71) trail well behind. 57 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 2013.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 69, with a site energy-use intensity of 70.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 446 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 55% complaint, 51 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$8.7M of Kings, written across 4,493 government filings.
