373 Ocean Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
373 Ocean Avenue is a 24-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building located in Flatbush, Brooklyn, constructed in 1939 and currently owned by Ismael Rioja. The building has experienced recurring heating and water supply issues, with multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages in both 2022 and 2019 affecting either the entire building or individual apartments.
More recent concerns include a heavy water leak reported in April 2023, which was not able to be inspected by HPD, and rodent-related issues with multiple sightings reported in 2022 and most recently in October 2023, though the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene found no violations during their October 2023 inspection. The building faces some maintenance concerns as evidenced by two open violations from October 2023 related to eroded mortar joints on the building façade at the 3rd and 4th stories. Historically, the property has had various maintenance issues that were generally addressed, including plumbing problems in March 2022, door/window issues in September 2022, and multiple heat/hot water complaints.
The building had documented pest control measures in place, with the most recent bedbug reports from 2024 showing no infestations. Despite these challenges, most violations and service requests have been resolved, with the building passing recent rodent inspections in 2024, though earlier inspections in 2024 indicated rat activity that required bait application. The property has also demonstrated compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2021, with no current infestations reported.
