Augrented Insights Report for 591 Ocean Avenue

591 Ocean Avenue is a 6-story, 72-unit residential building constructed in 1935, currently owned by Crispin Edgehill. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with the most recent cluster of complaints in May 2025 involving violations related to plumbing (bathtub/shower, sink), window frames, and electrical lighting.

Inspections typically found no violations for most complaints, though some violations were issued that required correction. The building has an established history of elevator maintenance challenges, with multiple complaints and violations documented between 2018 and 2023, including issues with hoistway doors, which resulted in ECB violations in March 2023 that required repairs. The property has seen significant maintenance activity in the past year, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints filed in June 2025 regarding plumbing, cabinetry, and paint/plaster issues, all of which were closed.

Historical records show periodic bedbug infestations between 2019 and 2023, though reports for the past two years (2023-2024) indicate no infested units. Recent rodent inspections have shown consistent rat activity throughout 2023-2024, with multiple bait applications and compliance inspections, though a compliance inspection in August 2024 passed. The building's inspection history reveals a pattern of maintenance issues and violations primarily focused on interior conditions (plumbing, paint/plaster, and other general maintenance needs), while also highlighting some infrastructure and safety concerns related to the elevator system and occasional exterior maintenance requirements.
