Completed in 1973, 55 Bowen St rises 6 stories over Richmond. Public records put it at 156 units and 154,860 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $17.8M, and assessed for tax at $8.0M. In the 56 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,649 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 737 of its 1,649 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (733) and enforcement (62) trail well behind. 92 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 47, with a site energy-use intensity of 80.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 934 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 56 years of accumulation, a parcel of Richmond — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$17.8M of Richmond, written across 1,649 government filings.
