Completed in 1920, 2501 Newkirk Ave rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 54 units and 44,800 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.7M, and assessed for tax at $1.7M. In the 53 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 8,497 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 4,292 of its 8,497 records, fully 51%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (3,861) and enforcement (102) trail well behind. 572 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 10, with a site energy-use intensity of 104.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 299 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 51% violation, 53 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.7M of Kings, written across 8,497 government filings.
