Completed in 1941, 8801 Foster Ave rises 2 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 2 units and 35,250 square feet of floor area, on land zoned M1-1. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.5M, and assessed for tax at $1.6M. In the 58 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 94 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 26 of its 94 records, fully 28%, fall under that one heading. Violation (25) and permit (11) trail well behind. 23 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 98, with a site energy-use intensity of 7.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 30 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 28% enforcement, 58 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.5M of Kings, written across 94 government filings.
