The 180-unit, 6-story residential building at 83-31 116th Street in Kew Gardens, owned by Mitchell Hill, has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, with multiple complaints about water leaks, mold, and deteriorating paint conditions. Most notably, in May 2025, HPD issued violations relating to water leaks (both slow and heavy flow), mold, and paint/plaster issues affecting both walls and ceilings.
The building has a documented history of pest problems, including a confirmed infestation in Apartment 1B (September 2024) involving roaches, along with multiple bedbug incidents between 2019-2024, though all were reported as resolved or eradicated. The property has undergone several significant inspections and violations in recent years, particularly regarding building systems and safety features. In 2024, violations were recorded for non-compliance with carbon monoxide and smoke detector requirements in Apartment 6E, though these were subsequently certified as corrected.
The elevator system has been a recurring focus, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service between 2019-2023, generating ECB violations in March 2023 for various safety equipment issues. Additionally, there were serious concerns in 2021 regarding egress blockages and fire escape obstruction, along with unauthorized construction work complaints. The building currently has six open violations as of October 2023, primarily related to pest control and safety systems, though the most recent rodent inspection from February 2025 passed.
