Augrented Insights Report for 85-53 Eliot Avenue

The 4-story, 7-unit residential building at 85-53 Eliot Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Frank Bahar, has experienced several significant events since its construction in 1998. Most notably, there was a mold-related unsanitary condition complaint filed in September 2021, which HPD was unable to inspect.

The building has also faced some regulatory compliance issues, including two violations (in 2020 and 2022) for failing to file the required annual bedbug report, though recent records from 2022 through 2024 show no reported bedbug infestations, with the most recent filings indicating zero infested units. Another violation in 2020 concerned missing or defective window guards in apartment 53F, and there was a violation in 2020 regarding improper display of the building's registration number. More recent concerns involve two Department of Buildings complaints from 2022-2023 relating to illegal signage and certificate of occupancy issues, with both matters resulting in Oath Violations Served.

An environmental violation from August 2024 was recorded regarding non-compliant cement/asphalt surfacing on the property, though this was resolved without penalty. The building's bedding bug reporting history between 2019 and 2024 shows consistent reporting of zero infested units, and both rodent inspections (2014 and 2022) resulted in passing scores, suggesting overall good pest control management. Despite the various violations and complaints documented over the years, most appear to have been resolved, with no current open violations as of October 2023.
