Completed in 1931, 566 Dekalb Ave rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 34 units and 25,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.8M, and assessed for tax at $1.2M. In the 53 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 280 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 85 of its 280 records, fully 30%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (40) and enforcement (37) trail well behind. 11 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 76, with a site energy-use intensity of 50.8 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 106 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 30% violation, 53 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.8M of Kings, written across 280 government filings.
