The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 53 of its 167 records, fully 32%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (51) and permit (15) trail well behind. 5 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 2020.

Read together — 32% violation, 50 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.5M of Kings, written across 167 government filings.
