The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2012.

Read together — 64% complaint, 88 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.2M of Kings, written across 1,132 government filings.
