Augrented Insights Report for 679 Ocean Parkway

679 Ocean Parkway is a 6-story, 59-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Fausto Diaz. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues, particularly regarding water leaks and pest problems. Most recently, in June 2025, there were multiple complaints about paint/plaster issues on walls and ceilings, as well as water leaks, with violations issued.

Earlier complaints from March-April 2025 included plumbing issues with sinks, bathtubs/showers, and door/window problems. The building's recent history shows ongoing challenges with rodent control, with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2021 and 2025, though some inspections have passed as well. Significant violations have been documented in apartments 6E and 5H, with issues ranging from mold and pest infestations to problems with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The elevator system has been a recurring concern, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service between 2021 and 2025, leading to various penalties. Environmental Control Board violations from 2018-2023 show consistent elevator maintenance issues requiring attention, including problems with brakes, door zone restrictors, and floor stops. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record in recent years, with no reported infestations since 2019.
