Completed in 1930, 116 East 52 St rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 42 units and 32,696 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.3M, and assessed for tax at $570K. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,970 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,879 of its 2,970 records, fully 63%, fall under that one heading. Violation (917) and enforcement (40) trail well behind. 39 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 2022.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 25, with a site energy-use intensity of 99.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 201 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 63% complaint, 59 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.3M of Kings, written across 2,970 government filings.
