146-18 Rockaway Boulevard, Queens, NY 11436

The property at 146-18 Rockaway Boulevard in South Ozone Park, owned by Arman Kohanbash, is a 2-story, 4-unit building constructed in 1931 that has undergone a historical conversion to Class A status. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the years, with the most concerning being a cluster of violations in 2012 that included lack of electricity, hot water, and gas supply issues in the second-floor apartment (2F), as well as missing smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in both the first-floor (1F) and second-floor apartments.

Other 2012 violations involved safety concerns such as loose stair treads and defective floor tiles in public areas, though all these violations were eventually certified as closed between 2020 and 2022. More recent maintenance history shows some positive trends, with the building apparently maintaining compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2022, showing no current infestations in the latest 2025 report. The bedbug situation seemed to improve after 2022 when three units were reported as eradicated during the 2022-2023 period.

However, there have been three failed rodent inspections (2011, 2014) under the original owner, indicating past challenges with pest management. The most recent bedbug report for the period 2023-2024 shows no current infestations or eradication efforts needed, suggesting improved pest control management. The building's owner has demonstrated compliance with various housing maintenance code requirements over the years, though there have been periods of significant code violations that impacted resident safety and comfort.
