Augrented Insights Report for 189 Beach 26th Street

The three-story, two-family house at 189 Beach 26th Street in Far Rockaway has experienced significant maintenance challenges since 2023, particularly affecting the second apartment. Most notably, from 2024 onwards, there have been persistent issues with pests (including roaches and mice), water leaks, and multiple unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage. The building underwent inspections in September 2024 that revealed several violations requiring attention, including problems with the bathroom ceiling and ventilation systems, along with reports of roach infestation and maintenance issues with handrails and stairs.

During 2023-2024, there were also concerns about mold, ceiling damage, and various plumbing and ventilation problems. The property has a history of unauthorized modifications, as evidenced by two Department of Buildings (DOB) violations in 2023 for work without permits, including illegal gas piping installation and the creation of unauthorized bedrooms. There have been multiple Department of Health (DOHMH) inspections showing rodent activity, though recent inspections in 2025 have passed.

While the building has maintained a bedbug-free status for several years with no reported infestations from 2020 to present, the recent history of pest problems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The property owner, Pinchas Yakobov, has faced multiple violations across various systems including plumbing, electrical, and heating, with some work being done without proper permits. The most recent rodent inspection in May 2025 resulted in a passing grade, indicating some improvements in pest management, though the overall pattern of violations suggests persistent maintenance issues affecting resident comfort and safety.
