In the 110 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,112 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,197 of its 2,112 records, fully 57%, fall under that one heading. Violation (748) and enforcement (61) trail well behind. 138 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 2014.

Read together — 57% complaint, 110 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.5M of Kings, written across 2,112 government filings.
