Augrented Insights Report for 681 Ocean Avenue

681 Ocean Avenue is a 6-story, 60-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Eddie Ljesnjanin. The property has experienced numerous maintenance issues in recent years, with particularly concerning patterns emerging in 2025 and late 2024. Most notably, there have been multiple incidents of water leaks reported between April and June 2025, including heavy flow leaks that resulted in HPD violations.

The building has been facing ongoing elevator-related challenges, with multiple complaints and violations regarding elevator service, functionality, and safety features between 2023 and 2025. An active ECB violation from September 2024 indicates problems with door restrictors, noisy components, and leveling issues, with significant penalties of $6,250 remaining due. The building's maintenance history shows recurring issues with pest control, including cockroach infestations and some bedbug activity, with inspections in 2024 and 2025 documenting rat activity on multiple occasions.

Apartment D6, documented with several housing maintenance code violations in October 2024, showed multiple maintenance issues including problems with bathroom fixtures and necessary repairs to various components. The property has had periodic bedbug infestations documented through the required filings, with the most recent report indicating one infested dwelling unit in the 2024-2025 reporting period and previous infestations noted in 2022. Recent complaints have continued to focus on building systems and maintenance, including ongoing issues with flooring/stairs, water leaks, and sanitary conditions, with some inspections resulting in violations while others did not. The elevator system has required particular attention, with multiple service requests and ECB violations related to its operation and safety features, consistently generating violations that the owner has been required to address through various penalties and citations.
