Completed in 1920, 505 Lincoln Pl rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 30 units and 25,556 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.2M, and assessed for tax at $2.4M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 974 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 619 of its 974 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (279) and enforcement (18) trail well behind. 10 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 99, with a site energy-use intensity of 18.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 53 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% complaint, 61 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.2M of Kings, written across 974 government filings.
