The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 84 of its 383 records, fully 22%, fall under that one heading. Permit (78) and enforcement (67) trail well behind. No 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 2017.

Read together — 22% violation, 53 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.2M of Kings, written across 383 government filings.
