3-33 Seagirt Boulevard, Queens, NY 11691

Seaview Towers, a 20-story residential building located at 3-33 Seagirt Boulevard in Far Rockaway, has been experiencing persistent maintenance issues throughout 2025, particularly related to water and sanitation problems. In recent months, there have been multiple reports of water leaks, including one documented as a "heavy flow" situation, and concerns about mold and unsanitary conditions. The building's infrastructure has been maintained through various emergency repairs and inspections, with no violations cited in response to most complaints, though a ventilation system issue, plumbing problems (including toilet issues), and door/windown problems were also documented in May 2025. The building has faced recurring elevator safety concerns, with multiple complaints filed throughout 2022-2023 resulting in several Environmental Control Board violations related to elevator operation, emergency systems, and safety features, though all were subsequently resolved.

Historical maintenance records show a pattern of issues requiring attention, including lead paint hazards, door problems, and various plumbing concerns. The property has also had documented bedbug infestations ranging from 1 to 5 units affected in multiple reporting periods between 2019 and 2024, with records showing successful eradication efforts in affected units. Additionally, rodent activity has been documented through various inspections, though recent inspections (as of early 2025) show improved conditions with the most recent inspection passing. Recent building inspections and service requests have generally resulted in no violations being issued, suggesting that while there are ongoing maintenance issues, the building management is responding to service requests and conducting necessary repairs.

The property has maintained active compliance with Local Law 188/17 inspections and other regulatory requirements, with most violations being addressed and closed in a timely manner. The building's maintenance history shows regular monitoring and response to various housing code requirements, though the persistence of certain issues, particularly relating to water and sanitation, suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges. The most recent service requests and inspections from 2025 have primarily focused on water-related issues, including multiple leak complaints, while earlier 2025 issues included concerns about rodent presence and general building systems. The building, constructed in 1975, continues to operate as a major housing complex with 462 units, though recent maintenance records indicate that certain systemic infrastructure challenges remain a focus of tenant concerns and management responses.
