It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.6M, and assessed for tax at $2.5M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 934 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 66, with a site energy-use intensity of 76.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 337 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 58 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.6M of Kings, written across 934 government filings.
