Completed in 1928, 135 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 75 units and 66,076 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.2M, and assessed for tax at $2.3M. In the 97 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,866 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,196 of its 1,866 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (480) and enforcement (53) trail well behind. 72 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 2005.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 54, with a site energy-use intensity of 82.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 382 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% complaint, 97 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.2M of Kings, written across 1,866 government filings.
