135 120th Street, Queens, NY 11694

The three-story, two-unit residential building at 135 120th Street in Rockaway Park, owned by Mohamed Hakim, has experienced several notable incidents and ongoing compliance issues since 2021.

Most concerning is the recurring failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug reports as required by the Housing Maintenance Code, with open violations documented in 2021, 2022, and most recently in 2023 and 2024, indicating a persistent compliance oversight that spans multiple years. The property also underwent a power outage incident in late December 2022, which was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) though no violations were found in that case.

In terms of building improvements, there are records of a permit process related to alteration work (permit sequence number 03, job number 401826609) that began in June 2022, with filings in June and October 2022 that remained in process, before finally being issued in November 2022. While HPD's investigation of the power outage resulted in no violations, and the apartment building appears to be physically occupied as evidenced by the two unit classification, the multiple open violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements represent the building's most significant and persistent regulatory challenge over the past several years.
