It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.5M, and assessed for tax at $2.9M. In the 38 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 201 separate government filings.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2023.

Read together — 39% permit, 38 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 201 government filings.
