Augrented Insights Report for 275 Ocean Avenue

The 4-story, 21-unit New Law Tenement at 275 Ocean Avenue, built in 1916 and currently owned by Jaqueline Rothstein, is experiencing recurring heating system challenges. Between November 2024 and March 2025, there were multiple tenant complaints and HPD inspections regarding heat and hot water issues, with several instances (notably on March 1, 2025, and January 21, 2025) where inspectors were unable to gain access to apartments for verification.

An active violation from November 2024 indicates excessively hot water (146 degrees) in Apartment 2, exceeding the maximum allowable temperature of 130 degrees. The building has also faced maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment 9, which was found to have multiple violations including a defective smoke detector, blocked fire escape window, and ongoing pest issues (with open violations for roach infestation as of November 2024).

Other notable concerns include an open violation from 2021 regarding a locked roof exit door, and multiple heating system complaints with HPD inspections revealing varying levels of access issues. While the building has passed recent rodent inspections (2021-2023), earlier inspections in 2015 showed rat activity, highlighting an historical pest control challenge. The building's most recent bedbug reports (2023-2024) show minimal infestation, with only one affected unit reported in late 2023.
