Completed in 1931, 156 Tompkins Ave rises 5 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 9 units and 6,356 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $87.2K, and assessed for tax at $39.3K. In the 43 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,006 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 421 of its 1,006 records, fully 42%, fall under that one heading. Violation (216) and enforcement (182) trail well behind. 11 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 2008.

Read together — 42% complaint, 43 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$87.2K of Kings, written across 1,006 government filings.
