Augrented Insights Report for 279 Ocean Parkway

This 77-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building located at 279 Ocean Parkway in Kensington, owned by Isaac Feldeberg and built in 1926, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring in 2024-2025. The building has faced multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building in early 2025, as well as plumbing problems involving toilets and sinks. There have been persistent pest control challenges, particularly with rodents, as evidenced by multiple pest-related complaints and inspections showing rat activity in 2023 and other compliance inspections since 2019.

Safety concerns were raised in 2024 regarding smoke detectors and building security, though the department was often unable to gain access for inspection. The building's elevator system has been a recurring area of concern, with multiple complaints between 2020-2025, including recent building shaking/vibrating complaints in 2025. Building maintenance violations were recorded in 2020 regarding obstructed fire escape pathways and elevated penalties, though these appear to have been resolved.

The property has experienced periodic bedbug infestations between 2018-2023, with the most recent report from 2024 showing no active infestations. Recent housing maintenance code violations from late 2024 primarily affected Apartment 5B, including issues with window guards, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, plumbing fixtures, and visible mold. While many complaints have been closed, they often indicate difficulties in gaining access for inspections and the need for tenants to refile complaints if issues persist. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues that have required ongoing attention, particularly regarding systems infrastructure, pest control, and basic maintenance compliance.
