Completed in 1930, 1864 85 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 77 units and 72,000 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R5. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $6.4M, and assessed for tax at $2.9M. In the 53 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,230 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 791 of its 1,230 records, fully 64%, fall under that one heading. Violation (337) and enforcement (36) trail well behind. 50 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 75, with a site energy-use intensity of 73.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 336 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 64% complaint, 53 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$6.4M of Kings, written across 1,230 government filings.
