Completed in 1931, 597 Ocean Ave rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 24 units and 28,800 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.9M, and assessed for tax at $842K. In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 151 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 65 of its 151 records, fully 43%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (34) and permit (16) trail well behind. 10 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 1985.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 61, with a site energy-use intensity of 82.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 189 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 43% violation, 55 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.9M of Kings, written across 151 government filings.
