It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.1M, and assessed for tax at $477K. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 659 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 18, with a site energy-use intensity of 99.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 208 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 43% violation, 60 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.1M of Kings, written across 659 government filings.
