Augrented Insights Report for 1479 Ocean Avenue

As of July 2025, 1479 Ocean Avenue in Midwood is a 4-story, 44-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Goder Realty Corp. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water reliability, particularly evident in multiple complaints between December 2024 and February 2025, with at least six separate heat/hot water complaints filed by tenants during this period.

More recently, in February 2025, the building faced complaints regarding unsanitary conditions, including pests and mold, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations in these cases. The building has a documented history of safety and maintenance concerns, including several Housing Maintenance Code violations identified during a November 2023 inspection, such as broken marble treads on stairs, unsafe electrical wiring, and various blocked egress pathways.

Notable violations from 2020 included issues with fire escape access and a missing gas vent limiter, though these were eventually resolved. The property has maintained a relatively stable bedbug record, with reports showing minimal infestation activity, particularly in the last three reporting periods (2022-2025) showing zero infested units. Rodent inspections show mixed results, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 passing, though a September 2024 inspection noted rat activity.
