Augrented Insights Report for 1280 Ocean Avenue

The 66-unit, 6-story building at 1280 Ocean Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Eddie Ljesnjanin and constructed in 1935, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there are active structural concerns from late 2022/early 2023, with reports of bricks falling from the facade, eroded mortar joints, and a retaining wall with multiple cracks.

The Department of Buildings has issued violations for failing to comply with a 2023 engineer's report requirement related to structural deficiencies, with a penalty of $2,500 still outstanding. In October 2024, the building was cited for multiple Class C violations related to pest infestations, including one apartment (6D) reportedly experiencing issues with both mice and roaches, along with several maintenance problems including broken window components, water leaks, and defective plaster surfaces. Recent complaints from January 2025 indicate ongoing resident concerns, including issues with fire escapes (three separate complaints), garbage/recycling storage problems, and various unit maintenance issues.

The building has also faced recurring elevator service problems, with multiple complaints about the single-device system and lack of alternative service dating back to 2018, and safety concerns related to fire escape functionality. While there have been some improvements, as evidenced by recent passing rodent inspections and the resolution of various complaints, the building continues to grapple with periodic heat/hot water issues, as demonstrated by multiple emergency complaints in early 2025. The property has maintained a relatively stable bedbug history in recent years, with only one reported case in 2023-2024, though it should be noted that pest issues were cited in recent HPD violations.
