A RegWatch Dossier

265records on file

Completed in 1973, 670 Lafayette Ave rises 1 story over Kings. Public records put it at 1 unit and 11,925 square feet of floor area, on land zoned PARK. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.8M, and assessed for tax at $3.1M. In the 36 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 265 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 118 of its 265 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Permit (76) and complaint (29) 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building is benchmarked under Local Law 84, with a site energy-use intensity of 115.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 111 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% enforcement, 36 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.8M of Kings, written across 265 government filings.
