Completed in 1924, 5 Westminster Rd rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 41 units and 39,688 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.3M, and assessed for tax at $1.0M. In the 102 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,447 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 766 of its 1,447 records, fully 53%, fall under that one heading. Violation (556) and inspection (31) trail well behind. 30 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 37, with a site energy-use intensity of 106.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 259 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 53% complaint, 102 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.3M of Kings, written across 1,447 government filings.
