The 13-unit, 2-story building at 4725 Beach 47th Street in Sea Gate, owned by Alexander Blyakher, has experienced several significant events and ongoing issues since 2018. Most notably, there are persistent concerns about unauthorized conversions and occupancy, with multiple illegal hotel room complaints and violations regarding altered occupancy status between 2019 and 2025. The building has been cited for illegal conversions of 11 "B" rooms to 6 "A" apartments, with an open Class B violation regarding occupancy contrary to Department of Buildings records, and multiple illegal hotel room complaints throughout 2024 suggesting recurring unauthorized short-term rental activity.
The property has faced various maintenance and safety issues, particularly in 2018-2019, including multiple complaints about doors and door frames, several of which were classified as emergencies. There was a fire escape safety complaint in April 2024, although no violations were found upon inspection. Significant interior damage was reported after a fire incident in 2019, particularly affecting apartments 2, 3, and 6, though these violations have since been closed. More recent environmental concerns include two active ECB violations from 2024: one regarding unauthorized electrical work and another concerning an unpermitted rear yard structure, with associated fines.
The building's bedbug reporting history from 2019-2024 shows no documented infestations, with all reported units being free of pests during the annual inspections. The property has undergone various inspections and investigations regarding compliance issues, with multiple instances of inspectors being denied access to the premises during 2022-2025. Recent complaints suggest ongoing concerns about the building's compliance with current occupancy regulations, electrical safety requirements, and zoning laws. The most recent bedbug report from 2024 indicates the building has remained pest-free for at least four consecutive years, with no units requiring treatment.
