233 Beach 100th Street, Queens, NY 11694

233 Beach 100th Street is a 2-family residential building located in Rockaway Park, constructed in 2005 and currently owned by Ralph Migliore. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past year, with particular emphasis on electrical problems, plumbing concerns, and potential illegal modifications.

Most notably, there were multiple power outage incidents reported in March 2023, including one classified as an immediate emergency, followed by related complaints that the Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) department was unable to access for inspection. The property has also recorded multiple plumbing-related issues, including sink problems and a concerning pattern of mold and unsanitary conditions reported in September 2023. Recent inspections and violations from September 2023 reveal significant concerns about unauthorized modifications to the building's structure and systems.

The Department of Buildings has issued open violations regarding the illegal conversion of space and unauthorized plumbing fixtures, particularly focused on a basement apartment (Apartment B) that allegedly contains unlawful cooking facilities, including a gas range and kitchen sink, along with a complete bathroom setup. These violations are supported by Environmental Control Board (ECB) findings from September 2023, which documented the unauthorized creation of an illegal Class "A" apartment in the basement, complete with a shower stall and water closet, for which a penalty of $620 was imposed. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with both basic infrastructure systems and unauthorized modifications, though it is important to note that while some complaints were closed, there remain open violations that require attention.
