It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.5M, and assessed for tax at $2.5M. In the 38 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 552 separate government filings.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward enforcement: 262 of its 552 records, fully 47%, fall under that one heading. Permit (114) and violation (79) trail well behind. 1 violation stands 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 69, with a site energy-use intensity of 68.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 164 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 47% enforcement, 38 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.5M of Kings, written across 552 government filings.
