164-50 84th Avenue, Queens, NY 11432

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 164-50 84th Avenue in Jamaica Hills, owned by Muhammad Rahman and constructed in 1960, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past few years. Most notably, in June 2020, serious concerns were raised about the structural integrity of the building's balconies, with multiple complaints filed regarding building shaking and vibrating, and violations issued for allegedly dangerous conditions including excessive deflection and potential collapse risk of the 2nd and 3rd floor balconies.

This situation resulted in an Environmental Control Board violation and a monetary penalty of $1,250 for installing temporary shoring without proper permits, though records indicate this was subsequently resolved. The building has also had recurring issues with bedbug report filings, though recent records from 2024 show zero infestations or eradication efforts, suggesting successful resolution of this previous concern.

The property has maintained a pattern of regular bedbug report compliance from 2021 through 2024, though all reports indicated no affected units. More recently, in May 2024, a complaint about bees or wasps (not related to beekeeping) was filed with the Department of Health, which remains in progress as of the current date. Prior to this, an illegal locking mechanism was removed in 2018, and various building maintenance-related complaints and violations were addressed, including one in 2020 regarding failure to maintain masonry walls and wood-framed floors, which appears to have been promptly addressed based on subsequent compliance.
