Completed in 1928, 879 Lenox Rd rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 38 units and 38,640 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $1.9M, and assessed for tax at $852K. In the 51 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,147 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 640 of its 1,147 records, fully 56%, fall under that one heading. Violation (345) and enforcement (42) trail well behind. 14 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 2025.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 21, with a site energy-use intensity of 100.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 234 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 56% complaint, 51 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$1.9M of Kings, written across 1,147 government filings.
