Completed in 2016, 189 Montague St rises 20 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 87 units and 165,766 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C5-2A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $57.1M, and assessed for tax at $25.7M. In the 57 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 810 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 282 of its 810 records, fully 35%, fall under that one heading. Violation (141) and enforcement (84) trail well behind. 2 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 100, with a site energy-use intensity of 41.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 694 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 35% permit, 57 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$57.1M of Kings, written across 810 government filings.
