Completed in 1931, 340 East 48 St rises 5 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 1 unit and 54,375 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $12.0M, and assessed for tax at $5.4M. In the 29 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 350 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 159 of its 350 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (88) and enforcement (61) trail well behind. 6 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.

Read together — 45% permit, 29 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$12.0M of Kings, written across 350 government filings.
