106-20 70th Avenue, Queens, NY 11375

The 8-story, 23-unit residential building at 106-20 70th Avenue in Forest Hills, owned by Albert Aranbaev, was completed in 2012 and has experienced several significant issues throughout its history. Most notably, there are recurring violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations as recent as April 2024, suggesting ongoing compliance issues with the Housing Maintenance Code.

The building has also been at the center of multiple concerning incidents regarding illegal occupancy and use, particularly during 2022-2023 when two active Environmental Control Board violations were filed against Kane Street Holding LLC for operating an unlicensed massage parlor with multiple treatment rooms on the first floor, resulting in substantial penalties totaling $4,375. Additional building maintenance violations include an active Department of Buildings violation from 2021 for failing to display energy efficiency scores, though this appears to be less critical in terms of immediate resident impact.

The building's early years (2011-2012) showed attention to pest control, with numerous rodent bait applications recorded, though the most recent bedbug violations suggest ongoing challenges in maintaining pest-free conditions. There have been multiple complaints recorded between 2020-2023, including reports of illegal after-hours work and unlicensed adult establishment activities, though most of these complaints were closed without violations being substantiated. The property has periodically shown issues with meeting regulatory compliance on various fronts, from pest control to building occupancy regulations, indicating a history of reactive rather than proactive property management.
