Completed in 1935, 1506 East 27 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 48 units and 54,700 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $3.2M, and assessed for tax at $1.4M. In the 91 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,582 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,006 of its 1,582 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (436) and permit (58) trail well behind. 50 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 2016.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 42, with a site energy-use intensity of 95.7 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 307 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% complaint, 91 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$3.2M of Kings, written across 1,582 government filings.
