Completed in 1959, 405 East 16 St rises 6 stories over Kings. Public records put it at 62 units and 51,176 square feet of floor area, on land zoned R7A. It is carried on the public rolls at a market value of $2.7M, and assessed for tax at $1.2M. In the 86 years its record reaches back, the lot has drawn 3,342 separate government filings — a paper trail nearly as tall as the building itself.

The documentary life of the address leans hard toward complaint: 1,709 of its 3,342 records, fully 51%, fall under that one heading. Violation (1,431) and enforcement (71) trail well behind. 175 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 34, with a site energy-use intensity of 100.9 kBtu per square foot. Its operations answer for roughly 326 metric tons of CO2-equivalent a year.

Read together — 51% complaint, 86 years of accumulation, a parcel of Kings — these scattered records compose a portrait of the address that no single page sets out to draw.

$2.7M of Kings, written across 3,342 government filings.
