Completed in 1937, 72 Orange St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 41 units and 32,418 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.2M, and assessed for tax at $2.8M. In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 198 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward permit: 58 of its 198 records, fully 29%, fall under that one heading. Violation (32) and assignment (31) trail well behind. 6 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 60, with a site energy-use intensity of 90.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 177 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 29% permit, 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.

$6.2M of Kings, written across 198 government filings.
