Completed in 1927, 240 Crown St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 135 units and 151,236 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.4M, and assessed for tax at $2.9M. In the 41 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,825 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,945 of its 3,825 records, fully 51%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,552) and enforcement (86) trail well behind. 142 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 89, with a site energy-use intensity of 52.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 521 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 51% complaint, 41 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.4M of Kings, written across 3,825 government filings.
