230 Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11218

230 Ocean Parkway, a 6-story New Law tenement building constructed in 1926 in Kensington, currently managed by Margaret Brunn, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are multiple active violations as of 2023 related to boiler and water systems, including malfunctioning mixing valves and pressure pumps, with associated penalties totaling $1,125.

The building has documented ongoing pest control challenges, with infestations of roaches reported in apartments E5 and F2 in late 2024, and three units reporting bedbug infestations in December 2024, though these were subsequently eradicated. The property has faced multiple housing maintenance code complaints in 2025, including violations related to doors/windows, water leaks, cabinet issues, and mold problems, particularly affecting units E5 and F2. The building's elevator system has been a recurring source of concern, with multiple complaints between 2023-2025 and an active complaint from April 2025 regarding multiple devices on the property.

The Department of Buildings records show several historical violations and complaints regarding boiler systems between 2023-2024, with some resulting in Oath Violations. While the building's management has secured various permits from 2018-2021 for maintenance works, including electrical and plumbing repairs, the persistence of these issues suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance. The property also shows a pattern of paint/plaster and water-related issues, with multiple recent complaints and violations in these categories, though many have been resolved promptly through HPD inspections.
