Completed in 1967, 55 Prospect St rises 10 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 48 units and 256,057 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $55.3M, and assessed for tax at $24.9M. In the 39 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 884 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 353 of its 884 records, fully 40%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (251) and violation (76) trail well behind. 5 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 67, with a site energy-use intensity of 54.5 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,250 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 40% permit, 39 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$55.3M of Kings, written across 884 government filings.
