105-10 65th Road, Queens, NY 11375

The 6-story, 48-unit apartment building at 105-10 65th Road in Forest Hills, owned by Ray Rahne, has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning is an active unsafe facade notification (LL11/98) filed in December 2024, with a related Environmental Control Board violation regarding public safety and building structure concerns, which carries a $2,500 penalty.

The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints recorded in December 2024 (for both the entire building and individual apartments), though some of these complaints were either resolved or closed without violations. The property has a documented history of rodent sightings, with 2024 being particularly active, showing both rat sightings in July and August, and more recent inspections in 2025 showing rat activity. Between 2018 and 2024, there have been three consecutive years (2018, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021) with violations related to failure to maintain the building facade, though previous facade issues were resolved.

Multiple safety and maintenance inspections conducted in 2022-2023 found various minor violations, including concerns about garbage/recycling storage and missing signage, but also showed that major systems like plumbing were generally maintaining compliance. The building's management has filed annual bedbug reports consistently since 2019, showing no reported infestations. While the property has experienced various maintenance issues, it's worth noting that inspection results show general compliance with major code requirements, though the active facade issue and recent heat/water complaints are the most significant ongoing concerns as of mid-2025.
