The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 52 of its 174 records, fully 30%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (51) and assignment (15) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 76, with a site energy-use intensity of 73.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 219 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 30% violation, 57 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.1M of Kings, written across 174 government filings.
