131-19 Rockaway Boulevard, Queens, NY 11420

The two-family house at 131-19 Rockaway Boulevard, owned by Capildeo Seetaram, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in the last 12 months. Most notably, in September-October 2023, the property faced multiple unsanitary conditions, including pest infestations (both roaches and mice), and water leakage problems, with some violations specifically documented in Apartment 1.

The building has a concerning history of heating system problems, with three heat/hot water complaints filed between November 2021 and December 2022, though two of these were reported to have been resolved quickly. The property has also undergone inspections revealing various maintenance needs, including the requirement to repair multiple bathroom fixtures and address safety systems such as carbon monoxide detectors, with the most recent violations certified as corrected in November 2023.

Historical data shows the building was constructed in 1920 and has remained as a two-family structure. In addition to the recent issues, a 2020 Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection related to food establishment matters was administratively closed. The building's maintenance record indicates a pattern of plumbing, heating, and pest control challenges, with the most pressing concerns being the recent infestation problems and the need for various repairs to maintain basic living conditions.
