Completed in 2008, 385 Union Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 47 units and 53,023 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-2/R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $15.4M, and assessed for tax at $6.9M. In the 54 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,061 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 441 of its 1,061 records, fully 42%, fall under that one heading. Violation (258) and enforcement (105) trail well behind. 4 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 2011.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 35, with a site energy-use intensity of 60.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 238 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 42% complaint, 54 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$15.4M of Kings, written across 1,061 government filings.
