104-49 164th Street, Queens, NY 11433

This 2-story, 3-unit residential building located at 104-49 164th Street in Jamaica, built in 1901 and currently owned by Jonathan Natanov, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, a comprehensive inspection in May 2024 revealed multiple violations in Apartment 1 on the first story, including defective plaster surfaces and paint requirements in both the kitchen and private hallway, as well as a concerning fire safety issue involving obstructing bars or unlawful gates at windows. These violations were classified as either Class B or Class C, with the exception of one Class C violation related to fire-rated materials in the public hall.

In terms of entry security and safety, there was also a violation regarding a defective self-closing door at the apartment entrance. Additionally, the building had recurring compliance issues with bedbug reporting requirements between 2021 and 2024, though most recently filed reports for the periods ending October 2024 and October 2023 show no infestation (0 units affected), indicating successful maintenance of pest control standards. The property's most recent inspection and correction period show active management, with many violations being certified as corrected by June 2024, including the kitchen and hallway issues, as well as the self-closing door violation.

The 2025 bedbug report filing, showing no affected units, suggests improved compliance with pest management requirements. While the building has experienced multiple maintenance issues over the past few years, the prompt correction of most recent violations and the absence of bedbug infestations in recent reports indicates improved building management practices. The documented violations and their corrections demonstrate a pattern of addressing both general maintenance and specific safety concerns, particularly those related to fire safety and pest control, though it is worth noting that the building's age may contribute to some of these persistent maintenance requirements.
