In the 55 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 4,878 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 2,883 of its 4,878 records, fully 59%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,295) and enforcement (308) trail well behind. 112 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.

Read together — 59% 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 4,878 government filings.
