Completed in 1925, 224 Empire Blvd rises 3 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 1 unit and 36,485 square feet of floor area, on land zoned C8-2. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.5M, and assessed for tax at $2.9M. In the 45 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 129 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 50 of its 129 records, fully 39%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (23) and violation (18) trail well behind. No 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 2014.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 35.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 100 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 39% permit, 45 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.5M of Kings, written across 129 government filings.
