Augrented Insights Report for 2701 Ocean Avenue

2701 Ocean Avenue is a 6-story, 63-unit residential building constructed in 1959, currently owned by Steve Gross. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues in 2025, with recurring complaints about heat and hot water systems throughout the building between January and February 2025, as well as problems with unsanitary conditions including mold and pests in 2025.

While some of these complaints have been investigated and closed by HPD, there are indications of ongoing concerns, particularly regarding pest control, with multiple service requests filed in April 2025 where inspectors were unable to gain access for inspection. The building has a documented history of elevator-related issues, with multiple complaints about lack of alternate service between 2019 and 2025, including an active complaint from June 2025. In December 2024, several violations were issued regarding fire safety and self-closing doors in the basement staircase area, though many violations from July 2024 related to apartment 5G, including issues with carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detectors, and various maintenance concerns, were subsequently certified as corrected.

The building has undergone regular rodent control measures, as evidenced by multiple bait applications in 2024 and 2025, suggesting ongoing pest management requirements. A permit was issued in August 2023 for unspecified work under job number 340897569. The property has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in its annual filings from 2021 to 2024, though the building's recent history suggests ongoing pest management challenges.
