Completed in 1941, 1679 East 3 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 66 units and 62,400 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R6A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.7M, and assessed for tax at $2.5M. In the 51 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,646 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 875 of its 1,646 records, fully 53%, fall under that one heading. Violation (632) and enforcement (44) trail well behind. 138 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 2012.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 68, with a site energy-use intensity of 76.0 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 291 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 53% complaint, 51 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.7M of Kings, written across 1,646 government filings.
