The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2025.

Read together — 50% complaint, 99 years of accumulation, a parcel of Bronx — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.9M of Bronx, written across 1,499 government filings.
