19-25 Seagirt Boulevard, Queens, NY 11691

The 17-story residential building at 19-25 Seagirt Boulevard in Far Rockaway, owned by Kevin Williams and constructed in 1966, has experienced several significant maintenance issues and violations over the past few years. Most notably, there was a recurring pattern of heat and hot water problems in December 2024, with multiple emergency complaints filed for both building-wide and apartment-specific failures. In late 2024, violations were issued for defective smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, and toilet issues in apartment 6A.

The building has also faced façade-related concerns, with active ECB violations in 2024 regarding failure to secure public safety at an "unsafe building facade" and failure to submit required inspection reports. Infractions related to bedbug infestations have been documented, with the most recent report showing 63 infested units in 2024, though all were reportedly eradicated. The property has undergone various inspections and corrections, including work on ventilation systems, plumbing issues, and multiple elevator complaints. In 2024, concerning housing maintenance issues were identified, including multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints and plumbing problems.

Building violations related to facade safety were marked as active in 2024, with significant penalties imposed. The building's violation history shows attention to safety systems, with previous violations for self-closing doors and ventilation issues in different apartments. Despite these challenges, the building has passed several rodent inspections in recent years, indicating some level of maintenance effectiveness. The apartment's occupancy statistics show varying levels of unit turnover for bedbug treatments over the years, with the most recent data from 2024 showing a substantial infestation case that was reportedly successfully addressed.
