570 Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11218

570 Ocean Parkway is a 6-story, 43-unit residential building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Aza Pretto. The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the past decade that warrant attention. Most notably, there remains an open Class A violation from August 2023 regarding a broken window spring balance in the kitchen of apartment 3C, as well as several unresolved elevator-related safety concerns documented in 2020-2021, including an unguarded sump pump and various operational deficiencies that resulted in fines.

The building has a documented history of pest control challenges, with rodent sightings and complaints about window and ceiling conditions in 2020-2021, though recent bedbug reports from 2020-2024 show zero infestations. The property has had multiple violations requiring repairs and maintenance, particularly in apartment 2F, where issues with windows, smoke detectors, and maintenance of plastered surfaces have been recorded. A significant moisture issue was noted in 2010 regarding a water leak in the hallway near apartment 1H, which has since been resolved.

The building's elevator safety systems have been a recurring concern, with violations related to emergency procedures and equipment functionality. While the building's management has addressed many historical issues, as evidenced by the closure of numerous past violations, there remain several active concerns, including some environmental control board violations and the aforementioned window issue in apartment 3C. The property has generally maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements in recent years, with the 2020 infestations appearing to have been effectively resolved.
