The 6-unit, 3-story building at 151-23 79th Street in Howard Beach, owned by Cindy Swimmer and constructed in 1978, has experienced several noteworthy issues over recent years. Most recently, in July 2023, there were violations related to unsanitary garbage and recycling storage conditions. The building has faced recurring concerns with indoor air quality, with multiple complaints filed in early 2023 and late 2022, particularly regarding ventilation issues.
Between March and April 2022, there was a cluster of maintenance problems primarily affecting apartment 3B, including issues with window frames, door frames, and plumbing in the bathroom, which resulted in multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations. During the same period, there were also emergencies related to heat/hot water for the entire building and plumbing water supply matters. More recent inspections in 2023-2024 revealed several ongoing violations, including a Class B violation for insufficient garbage receptacles and a Class B violation related to window frame repairs specifically documented for apartment 3B.
Notable among the building's recent history is a boiler-related violation in May 2024, which was resolved with a penalty. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestation, with no reported cases in the past four filing periods from 2021 through 2024, showing effective pest management practices. While the building has faced multiple maintenance and sanitation issues over recent years, many violations have been addressed or closed, though some remain open as of the latest available data.
