It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.9M, and assessed for tax at $855K. In the 54 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 973 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 14.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 43 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 52% complaint, 54 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.9M of Kings, written across 973 government filings.
