1235 Ocean Parkway, Brooklyn, NY 11230

This six-story, 119-unit residential building located at 1235 Ocean Parkway in Midwood, owned by Graham Realty Associates LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly related to heating systems and water infrastructure. Most notably, throughout late 2024 and early 2025, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, with several instances requiring emergency HPD interventions.

These complaints appear to have been temporarily resolved, though concerns about plumbing systems persist, as evidenced by a recent 311 complaint in May 2025 regarding toilet issues that HPD was unable to inspect. The building has also faced challenges with water-related problems, including damp spots and mold issues reported in early 2025. The property has a documented history of pest management challenges, with bedbug infestations reported in 2020, 2021, and most recently in 2024, though these have typically been addressed through eradication efforts.

Internal maintenance issues have included violations related to fire escape functionality and various apartment-specific problems, such as wall painting requirements and kitchen cabinet repairs in apartment 1K. The building's elevator system has been a recurring focus of attention, with multiple Department of Buildings complaints and violations recorded between 2018-2020 regarding safety devices and operational features, though these issues were ultimately resolved. While there have been some environmental control board violations related to building systems and security features, these have been addressed, and the building maintained passing inspections for rodent presence in 2016 and 2017.
