In the 49 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,562 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,674 of its 2,562 records, fully 65%, fall under that one heading. Violation (733) and enforcement (47) trail well behind. 35 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 2019.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 88, with a site energy-use intensity of 68.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 175 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 65% complaint, 49 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

65% of every record here performs the same act: complaint.
