89records on file

Completed in 1873, 325 Smith St rises 2 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 3 units and 4,320 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.8M, and assessed for tax at $350K. In the 48 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 89 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 22 of its 89 records, fully 25%, fall under that one heading. Mortgage (14) and permit (14) trail well behind. No 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 2019.

Read together — 25% enforcement, 48 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.8M of Kings, written across 89 government filings.
