It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $10.4M, and assessed for tax at $4.7M. In the 40 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 267 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 51 of its 267 records, fully 19%, fall under that one heading. Violation (44) and complaint (43) 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 2015.

Read together — 19% enforcement, 40 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$10.4M of Kings, written across 267 government filings.
