402 Beach 25th Street, Queens, NY 11691

The property at 402 Beach 25th Street in Far Rockaway, owned by Jenna Lipman, is a two-story, four-unit building constructed in 1931 with a complex record of maintenance issues and regulatory compliance. The building has experienced several significant maintenance challenges in recent years, most notably in 2024 with an unresolved refrigerator complaint where HPD inspectors could not gain access to evaluate the situation.

In 2023, multiple issues were documented, including electrical lighting problems, ceiling damage, and safety violations in apartment 1C related to smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and water leak issues, though these were subsequently closed. The building has also faced regulatory scrutiny, with a Class C open violation as of September 2023 regarding defective self-closing doors in apartment 1R, and various Administrative Code violations from 2022 requiring proper posting of building registration information and gas leak procedures.

The property has a documented history of inspection attempts and complaints regarding potential illegal conversion and unpermitted work, particularly in 2020 and 2022, though these investigations were marked as "Access Denied" or "Inspector Unable To Gain Access." A bedbug reporting compliance record shows zero infestation incidents for the past three reporting periods (2023-2025), suggesting effective pest management practices. The building passed a rodent inspection in May 2017, indicating previous attention to vermin control. While many of the historical violations have been closed, the most recent unresolved appliance complaint and the open door violation suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.
