255-18 Francis Lewis Blvd, Queens, NY 11422

The two-family house at 255-18 Francis Lewis Blvd in Rosedale is a 2-story building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Isaiah Akande. The property underwent construction work in late 2018 which was permitted through multiple permits including AL (alteration), FO (fire protection), and PL (plumbing) categories, all issued between August and September 2018 under job number 421607522.

During this construction period, a significant safety violation occurred, leading to an Environmental Control Board citation against Hallmark Construction Corporation on March 18, 2019, for failure to safeguard persons and property. The violation specifically noted that the stairs to the basement were missing handrails, both at the front and back of the building, during an inspection of the active construction site. This safety breach resulted in a $625 penalty, though records indicate it was subsequently resolved.

The construction project appears to have triggered additional oversight, as a complaint was filed on March 19, 2019, leading to an Oath Violation being served the same day. While all these incidents were resolved and the permits were issued as part of regular renovation work, the period between August 2018 and March 2019 was marked by elevated safety concerns due to the construction site conditions. Since these incidents occurred in 2018-2019 and were subsequently resolved, there have been no reported violations or complaints on record for the property in the most recent years up to October 2023, suggesting compliance with safety regulations in subsequent periods.
