Completed in 1893, 305 Decatur St rises 5 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 32 units and 29,362 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6B. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.6M, and assessed for tax at $1.2M. In the 51 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,764 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,093 of its 1,764 records, fully 62%, fall under that one heading. Violation (491) and permit (43) trail well behind. 24 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 16, with a site energy-use intensity of 128.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 232 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 62% complaint, 51 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.6M of Kings, written across 1,764 government filings.
