Completed in 1976, 721 Willoughby Ave rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 272 units and 290,715 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $38.4M, and assessed for tax at $17.3M. In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 4,822 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,872 of its 4,822 records, fully 60%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,283) and enforcement (306) trail well behind. 103 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.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 25, with a site energy-use intensity of 62.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 1,517 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 60% complaint, 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.

$38.4M of Kings, written across 4,822 government filings.
