Completed in 1926, 510 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 33 units and 30,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.1M, and assessed for tax at $1.4M. In the 50 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 812 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 377 of its 812 records, fully 46%, fall under that one heading. Violation (247) and enforcement (49) trail well behind. 88 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 2026.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 3, with a site energy-use intensity of 129.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 265 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 46% complaint, 50 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.1M of Kings, written across 812 government filings.
