29 Rockaway Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11212

29 Rockaway Parkway is a two-story, four-unit residential building located in Brownsville, built in 1930 and currently owned by Eugenio and Gladys Perez. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, with emergency complaints documented in April 2024 and May 2022, though HPD was unable to gain access to inspect the most recent complaint.

A cluster of violations was identified in May 2022, particularly affecting the first-floor unit (1F), including issues with water leaks, interior painting requirements, radiator maintenance, and various repairs needed for walls and ceilings. Additionally, the building has two open violations from March and April 2024 related to the failure to file the required annual bedbug report. The May 2022 inspection revealed multiple maintenance concerns in apartment 1F, including problems with self-closing doors, inconsistent hot water supply, and interior surface conditions requiring attention.

Specific violations included the need to address water leaks at the ceiling, repair defective plastered surfaces, and paint various surfaces in compliance with Department regulations. These violations, while designated with varying levels of severity (A, B, or C), largely relate to maintenance and aesthetic issues rather than safety concerns. The building's documented history suggests persistent challenges with basic services and maintenance requirements, particularly affecting the first-floor unit, though some recent issues remain unconfirmed due to access restrictions.
