The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 147 of its 570 records, fully 26%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (132) and inspection (110) 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 2005.

Read together — 26% permit, 54 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$23.2M of Kings, written across 570 government filings.
