In the 59 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,847 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

Read together — 57% complaint, 59 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.0M of Kings, written across 2,847 government filings.
