Completed in 1910, 151 Kent Ave rises 3 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 50 units and 54,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-2/R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $8.6M, and assessed for tax at $3.9M. In the 69 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 949 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 431 of its 949 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (228) and enforcement (160) trail well behind. 66 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 16.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 85 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 69 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$8.6M of Kings, written across 949 government filings.
