Completed in 1890, 500 Nostrand Ave rises 5 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 58 units and 61,380 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.4M, and assessed for tax at $2.0M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,197 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 480 of its 1,197 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Violation (406) and permit (95) trail well behind. 40 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 2008.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 19, with a site energy-use intensity of 96.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 397 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% complaint, 60 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.4M of Kings, written across 1,197 government filings.
