170-26 Jamaica Avenue, Queens, NY 11432
The two-unit residential building at 170-26 Jamaica Avenue in the Jamaica neighborhood, owned by Mehrdad Kahen, has a mixed record of maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 1931. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of bedbug reporting violations, with multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations related to annual bedbug report filings between 2020 and 2023, though the most recent 2024 bedbug report indicates no active or previously infested units during the 2022-2023 period.
The building has also had significant lead paint compliance issues, with active violations as of February 2021 regarding failure to notify occupants and provide required records related to lead-based paint hazards. A concerning safety issue was reported in December 2020 regarding a broken or missing window guard, though this complaint was ultimately closed without violations being issued.
Additional historical compliance issues include an active Department of Buildings violation from November 2019 regarding failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report, and two rodent inspections conducted in 2013 and 2014, both of which passed. While many of the more serious violations appear to have been addressed or are in the process of being resolved, including the closure of multiple bedbug-related violations, the building's history shows recurring patterns of documentation and safety compliance challenges that have persisted over several years.
