Completed in 1928, 313 Cumberland St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 86 units and 82,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $12.5M, and assessed for tax at $5.6M. In the 98 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 847 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 401 of its 847 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Violation (201) and permit (111) trail well behind. 9 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 45, with a site energy-use intensity of 84.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 442 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% complaint, 98 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$12.5M of Kings, written across 847 government filings.
