Completed in 1931, 505 Rockaway Pkwy rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 56 units and 45,318 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.9M, and assessed for tax at $1.8M. In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,046 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,119 of its 2,046 records, fully 55%, fall under that one heading. Violation (813) and inspection (33) trail well behind. 69 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 2022.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 73, with a site energy-use intensity of 72.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 226 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 55% 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.

$3.9M of Kings, written across 2,046 government filings.
