Completed in 1926, 1562 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 76 units and 77,224 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.4M, and assessed for tax at $2.0M. In the 66 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,019 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 502 of its 1,019 records, fully 49%, fall under that one heading. Violation (383) and assignment (28) trail well behind. 122 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 65, with a site energy-use intensity of 75.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 398 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 49% complaint, 66 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.4M of Kings, written across 1,019 government filings.
