51-13 94th Street, Queens, NY 11373

The two-family property at 51-13 94th Street in Elmhurst, built in 1935 and currently owned by Josef Aryeh, has experienced significant heating and maintenance issues, most notably during late 2019 when multiple emergency heat and hot water complaints were filed between February and December. These complaints included both entire building and apartment-specific problems, with violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) regarding inadequate heat and hot water supply.

The 2nd floor apartment (2NDFL) was specifically cited for violations under Administrative Code sections related to heating and hot water requirements, as well as for maintenance issues including defective plastered surfaces in the kitchen. Additional concerns emerged during this period, including an emergency complaint about unsanitary conditions and mold in November 2019, along with plumbing issues related to radiators.

The building's history also reveals an open violation regarding the improper use of the attic as a sleeping area in conjunction with the 2nd floor apartment. A rodent inspection conducted in May 2015 passed, but more recently, an illegal conversion complaint was filed in December 2019, though the Department of Buildings was unable to gain access during their inspection attempts in early 2020. While the most recent complaint-related activity dates back to 2019-2020, with no recorded issues since then, it's worth noting that many of these violations remained open as of the last recorded inspection in December 2019.
