Completed in 1920, 1705 Caton Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 56 units and 61,974 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.9M, and assessed for tax at $1.3M. In the 98 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,647 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 1,253 of its 2,647 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (1,132) and inspection (99) trail well behind. 105 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 7, with a site energy-use intensity of 111.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 452 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% violation, 98 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.9M of Kings, written across 2,647 government filings.
