The documentary life of the address leans hard toward mortgage: 15 of its 71 records, fully 21%, fall under that one heading. Release (14) and sale (11) trail well behind. No 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 1997.

Read together — 21% mortgage, 58 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$791K of Kings, written across 71 government filings.
