Completed in 2009, 550 Watkins St rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 56 units and 53,864 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.8M, and assessed for tax at $2.2M. In the 24 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 825 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 300 of its 825 records, fully 36%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (294) and permit (101) trail well behind. 80 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 97, with a site energy-use intensity of 27.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 141 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 36% violation, 24 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.8M of Kings, written across 825 government filings.
