Completed in 1931, 140 Clarkson Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 59 units and 69,491 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.0M, and assessed for tax at $1.4M. In the 91 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,642 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 811 of its 1,642 records, fully 49%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (692) and permit (40) trail well behind. 36 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 2019.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 12.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 99 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 49% violation, 91 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.0M of Kings, written across 1,642 government filings.
