Completed in 1927, 20 East 18 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 71 units and 65,370 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $5.5M, and assessed for tax at $2.5M. In the 60 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 1,017 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 455 of its 1,017 records, fully 45%, fall under that one heading. Violation (440) and permit (31) trail well behind. 36 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 63, with a site energy-use intensity of 90.3 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 363 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 45% complaint, 60 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$5.5M of Kings, written across 1,017 government filings.
