Completed in 1927, 1854 Ocean Ave rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 60 units and 53,052 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $4.2M, and assessed for tax at $1.9M. In the 54 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 864 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 483 of its 864 records, fully 56%, fall under that one heading. Violation (241) and enforcement (37) trail well behind. 56 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 24, with a site energy-use intensity of 118.2 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 399 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 56% complaint, 54 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$4.2M of Kings, written across 864 government filings.
