Completed in 1929, 836 Crown St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 58 units and 58,631 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.3M, and assessed for tax at $1.9M. In the 45 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 2,843 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 1,514 of its 2,843 records, fully 53%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (1,136) and inspection (56) trail well behind. 235 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 2021.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 90, with a site energy-use intensity of 88.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 321 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 53% violation, 45 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.3M of Kings, written across 2,843 government filings.
