It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $55.5K, and assessed for tax at $25.0K. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,546 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 531 of its 1,546 records, fully 34%, fall under that one heading. Violation (299) and sale (182) trail well behind. 43 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 2013.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 78, with a site energy-use intensity of 68.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 494 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 34% complaint, 61 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$55.5K of Kings, written across 1,546 government filings.
