97-44 86th Street, Queens, NY 11416
The two-story, four-unit OLD LAW TENEMENT building at 97-44 86th Street in Ozone Park, owned by Pablo Beras and built in 1931, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, in 2022, there were significant structural concerns regarding the building's exterior, with a violation citing "multiple cracks, missing mortar, and bulging above the first and second floor windows" resulting in a $1,250 penalty, and the issuance of an active sidewalk shed requirement.
More recent inspections in 2024 revealed problems with self-closing doors at both the building entrance and the cellar entrance, though these violations were certified as resolved by July 2024. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of door-related issues, with a similar violation recorded in 2018 concerning the entrance to apartment 1L, along with a 2018 violation requiring the posting of gas leak procedures in common areas.
Additional maintenance concerns include an open violation from 2010 regarding defective bathroom ceramic tiles in apartment 2R. While a complaint about building shaking or vibration was filed in April 2022, this complaint was closed on the same day with an "Oath Violation Served" disposition. The property has maintained an exemplary record regarding pest control, with no reported bedbug infestations in any of the annual reporting periods from 2019 through October 2024, showing a consistent pattern of zero infested units or eradication cases.
