Completed in 1914, 68 Jay St rises 10 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 155 units and 320,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-4/R8A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $57.5M, and assessed for tax at $25.9M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,046 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 287 of its 1,046 records, fully 27%, fall under that one heading. Enforcement (241) and complaint (178) trail well behind. 37 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 57, with a site energy-use intensity of 20.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 742 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 27% violation, 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.

$57.5M of Kings, written across 1,046 government filings.
