Completed in 1931, 1501 West 3 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 95 units and 102,750 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.2M, and assessed for tax at $2.3M. In the 95 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 888 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 446 of its 888 records, fully 50%, fall under that one heading. Violation (312) and enforcement (60) trail well behind. 41 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 2023.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 81, with a site energy-use intensity of 64.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 466 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 50% complaint, 95 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.2M of Kings, written across 888 government filings.
