1001 Ocean Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226
Located in Flatbush, 1001 Ocean Avenue is a 4-story, 23-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Marciano Hernandez. The property has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most recent concerns focusing on heating/hot water problems affecting the entire building in January 2025, and a water leak issue from January to May 2025 that HPD could not inspect due to access issues.
Other significant recent incidents include multiple heat/hot water complaints in 2024 that inspectors were unable to access for verification, an electrical power outage in August 2024, and various building maintenance issues such as window repairs and wiring problems in 2024. The building has also faced some concerning safety violations, particularly in August 2024 when multiple violations were issued regarding obstructions of fire escapes, including stored flower pots and other items, though these were subsequently certified as corrected in October 2024.
A notable Class C violation related to lead-based paint hazards in Apartment 4S was issued in April 2024, along with multiple active Department of Buildings violations regarding failure to file required inspection reports for the boiler and energy benchmarking. Despite these issues, the building has shown no evidence of bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods (2020-2025). While there were some rodent activity issues recorded in 2018, more recent inspections show compliance with pest control measures.
