147-40 70th Road, Queens, NY 11367

The two-family house at 147-40 70th Road in Kew Gardens Hills, owned by Aaron Kopelowitz, was built in 1945 and consists of two stories. The most significant resident concern on record relates to a December 2018 pest infestation in Apartment 1, for which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development issued violations after an inspection revealed mouse problems.

This infestation, categorized as an unsanitary condition, was officially documented in both the 311 service request and housing maintenance code complaints. The building has experienced several infrastructure-related issues between 2018 and 2019, including three separate complaints to the Department of Buildings. In July 2018, there was a report of defective or exposed electrical wiring, though no violations were found upon inspection.

Two permit-related complaints were filed in October 2018 and January 2019, with the latter resulting in an inspector's inability to gain access during the second final attempt. On the positive side, the property has obtained two permits in June 2019 related to plumbing and electrical work, indicating some maintenance and improvement efforts were being undertaken around that time. The most recent data available does not show any complaints or violations since these permits were issued, suggesting the immediate past issues may have been addressed, though it's important to note that recent data beyond October 2023 is not available for review.
