Completed in 1931, 55 Argyle Rd rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 16 units and 33,600 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.8M, and assessed for tax at $806K. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,120 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,280 of its 2,120 records, fully 60%, fall under that one heading. Violation (668) and inspection (47) trail well behind. 49 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 2014.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 83, with a site energy-use intensity of 82.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 172 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 60% complaint, 58 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.8M of Kings, written across 2,120 government filings.
