Completed in 1941, 297 Ocean Pkwy rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 60 units and 62,400 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.5M, and assessed for tax at $1.1M. In the 67 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 994 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The pace is anything but even. The early decades pass in near silence; the filings cluster heavily in recent years, peaking in 2019.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 44, with a site energy-use intensity of 95.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 362 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 59% complaint, 67 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.5M of Kings, written across 994 government filings.
