Augrented Insights Report for 1535 Ocean Avenue

The 44-unit, 4-story building at 1535 Ocean Avenue in Midwood, owned by Eddie Ljesnjanin and constructed in 1924, has experienced recurring pest-related issues in 2025, with three separate complaints about unsanitary conditions related to pests filed in June 2025. These complaints were closed due to failed inspection access, though similar complaints in March 2025 were inspected and found not to violate housing laws.

The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges between 2024-2025, including two Housing Maintenance Code violations related to ceiling repairs in Apartments 2I and 3I, and several complaints regarding cabinet issues in Apartment 2K. A significant boiler-related violation was recorded in September 2024, with issues noted regarding the chimney, discharge pipe, and safety valves, resulting in an active $500 fine.

The building's history shows periodic bedbug infestations between 2018-2022, with the most recent filings (2023-2024) showing no reported infestations. An illegal conversion complaint from 2022 was investigated but no violations were found at the time. While some violations from 2024 have been certified as corrected, including various repairs needed in Apartment 2K (including floor, door frame, and ceiling issues), the persistence of pest complaints in 2025 suggests ongoing maintenance challenges.
