Completed in 1941, 1615 Ave I rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 132 units and 148,680 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $12.5M, and assessed for tax at $5.6M. In the 86 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,204 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 765 of its 1,204 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (196) and permit (74) trail well behind. 36 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 2020.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 92, with a site energy-use intensity of 62.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 620 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% complaint, 86 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$12.5M of Kings, written across 1,204 government filings.
