Completed in 1928, 266 Washington Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 114 units and 105,360 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $13.6M, and assessed for tax at $6.1M. In the 83 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 4,426 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,708 of its 4,426 records, fully 61%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,259) and permit (167) trail well behind. 176 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 80, with a site energy-use intensity of 75.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 499 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 61% complaint, 83 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$13.6M of Kings, written across 4,426 government filings.
