3-29 Beach 65th Street, Queens, NY 11692

The property at 3-29 Beach 65th Street in Arverne is a three-story, three-unit building owned by Barry Ekstein, constructed in 2006. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues, with multiple emergency complaints filed between October 2024 and November 2024, though most of these were resolved relatively quickly. More recent concerns include a general maintenance issue involving the janitorial service reported in November 2024, which was closed following confirmation of resolution.

The building has faced challenges with sanitary conditions, particularly regarding garbage and recycling storage, with violations noted in inspections from December 2023 and April 2024. Historical records show two years (2021 and 2022) during which bedbug inspections were required but no infestations were reported. A power outage incident was recorded in July 2021, though no violations were issued following inspection.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to compliance with City regulations, as evidenced by the timely bedbug reporting since 2020, all indicating zero infestation during the respective reporting periods. Two code violations related to garbage storage and building cleanliness were documented in 2024, though these were subsequently addressed. The property underwent standard permitting processes as a new building in 2018, with permits issued for plumbing and new building work in July of that year. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues typical of NYC residential properties, the owner has generally responded to complaints in accordance with HPD requirements, and recent bedbug reports indicate effective pest management procedures with no reported infestations since 2019.
