It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.0M, and assessed for tax at $2.7M. In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,258 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,370 of its 2,258 records, fully 61%, fall under that one heading. Violation (693) and permit (67) trail well behind. 37 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 92, with a site energy-use intensity of 65.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 173 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 61% complaint, 59 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.0M of Kings, written across 2,258 government filings.
