103-26 68th Road, Queens, NY 11375

The 6-story, 103-unit residential building at 103-26 68th Road in Forest Hills, currently owned by Jason Brecher, has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with documented complaints in January and December 2025, November 2024, and throughout 2023. While these issues were typically resolved promptly, the pattern suggests ongoing maintenance challenges with building systems. The property has undergone facade work, with multiple facade repair permits issued between 2020-2023, and had associated violations related to facade maintenance in 2018-2020, including one for a non-code compliant supported scaffold.

Significant interior maintenance issues have been documented, particularly in Apartment A35, where multiple violations were recorded in May 2024 regarding door repair, paint conditions, water leak, and pest issues, though these were subsequently closed. The building has maintained an active record of compliance with pest and bedbug reporting, showing zero infested units reported in the past several years. The elevator system has experienced periodic issues, with complaints and violations recorded between 2018-2021, including a missing smoke detector violation in Apartment B22 in 2023. Recent inspections in 2024-2025 generally resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings, indicating responsive management to regulatory oversight, though there are currently active violations regarding the failure to file required technical reports (FISP Cycle 9B) and display energy efficiency scores.

The building has a history of rodent control measures, with some initial inspections in 2016-2021 showing failed results, though more recent reports suggest improvements. Multiple emergency repair permits have been issued between 2020-2023, indicating ongoing maintenance activity. Notably, the property has consistently reported zero bedbug infestations in annual filings since 2020, and recent pest inspections in 2024 resulted in no violations. While the building has maintained compliance with most regulatory requirements, the recurring heating system issues and active violations regarding FISP reporting requirements suggest areas requiring continued management attention.
