Completed in 1922, 1574 56 St rises 4 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 40 units and 30,534 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.2M, and assessed for tax at $1.0M. In the 103 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,152 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward violation: 520 of its 1,152 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Complaint (500) and permit (33) trail well behind. 115 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 87, with a site energy-use intensity of 90.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 167 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% violation, 103 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.2M of Kings, written across 1,152 government filings.
