Completed in 1941, 297 Lenox Rd rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 66 units and 69,090 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.6M, and assessed for tax at $1.6M. In the 46 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,218 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 687 of its 1,218 records, fully 56%, fall under that one heading. Violation (385) and permit (55) trail well behind. 32 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 73, with a site energy-use intensity of 72.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 311 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 56% complaint, 46 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.6M of Kings, written across 1,218 government filings.
