In the 61 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,799 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,448 of its 2,799 records, fully 52%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,203) and enforcement (48) trail well behind. 81 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 2018.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 12, with a site energy-use intensity of 110.6 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 292 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 52% complaint, 61 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.2M of Kings, written across 2,799 government filings.
