A RegWatch Dossier

60records on file

Completed in 1899, 217 Grant Ave rises 2 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 3 units and 2,320 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.1M, and assessed for tax at $63.4K. In the 53 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 60 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward mortgage: 13 of its 60 records, fully 22%, fall under that one heading. Release (10) and lien (10) trail well behind. 6 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 2006.

Read together — 22% mortgage, 53 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.1M of Kings, written across 60 government filings.
