Completed in 1928, 231 Brightwater Ct rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 49 units and 45,189 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.0M, and assessed for tax at $2.2M. In the 100 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,083 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 545 of its 1,083 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Violation (360) and assignment (43) trail well behind. 42 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 88, with a site energy-use intensity of 60.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 169 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% complaint, 100 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.0M of Kings, written across 1,083 government filings.
