The 61-unit, 5-story building at 744 Rockaway Avenue in Brownsville, owned by William Martinez and constructed in 2005, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in June 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding water leaks (heavy flow), mold, and issues with paint/plaster on ceilings and walls. The building has also faced recurring heating system problems, as evidenced by multiple heat/hot water complaints in January 2025, though inspections found no violations.
Earlier issues include water leak complaints in Fall 2023, and various maintenance matters in 2023 including electrical problems and window/door issues. The building has active violations regarding energy efficiency requirements, with documented failures to file benchmarking reports and display energy efficiency scores from 2019 through 2024. Three elevator-related violations were recorded between 2021-2024, with safety concerns about a tampered door zone restrictor.
Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2024 cited defective self-closing doors in public areas. While the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations since 2020, with the most recent report in March 2025 showing no affected units, there have been various maintenance challenges that suggest ongoing building systems and maintenance requirements. These include historical HVAC issues, water-related problems, and responses to multiple emergency service requests.
