Completed in 1940, 1695 East 21 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 63 units and 78,840 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.6M, and assessed for tax at $2.5M. In the 85 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 840 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 446 of its 840 records, fully 53%, fall under that one heading. Violation (286) and inspection (32) trail well behind. 105 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 2024.

On the environmental ledger, the building posts an Energy Star score of 86, with a site energy-use intensity of 59.4 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 290 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 53% complaint, 85 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.6M of Kings, written across 840 government filings.
