It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $8.6M, and assessed for tax at $3.9M. In the 63 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,027 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 456 of its 1,027 records, fully 44%, fall under that one heading. Violation (300) and permit (83) trail well behind. 11 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 2011.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 89, with a site energy-use intensity of 63.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 441 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 44% complaint, 63 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$8.6M of Kings, written across 1,027 government filings.
