Completed in 1926, 1641 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 113 units and 115,920 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.1M, and assessed for tax at $2.7M. In the 66 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 845 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 528 of its 845 records, fully 62%, fall under that one heading. Violation (205) and inspection (23) trail well behind. 49 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 2017.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 90, with a site energy-use intensity of 69.1 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 488 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 62% 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.

$6.1M of Kings, written across 845 government filings.
