Augrented Insights Report for 118-40 Metropolitan Avenue

118-40 Metropolitan Avenue in Kew Gardens is a 6-story, 84-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1928 and currently owned by Imperial Associates LLC. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, with seven emergency service requests documented between October 2024 and February 2025, affecting either the entire building or individual apartments. A significant cluster of complaints in October 2024 included reports of a broken window guard, sewage issues, and ongoing heat problems, with some violations noted by HPD that required correction.

The Department of Buildings has documented several elevator-related complaints between 2021 and 2025, particularly regarding multiple devices on the property, though inspections generally found no violations warranting enforcement action. The building has undergone various inspections and faced multiple violations related to lead paint hazards, safety devices, and service compliance. Notable violations from October 2024 involve lead paint requirements in apartment 4C, including window guard installation and safety device deficiencies such as missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, many of which were subsequently marked as resolved by early 2025.

The property has maintained a relatively consistent record with pest control and bedbug management, though there were periods of infestation notable between 2022 and 2024. Recent records show improved compliance with maintenance codes, with bedbug reports indicating eradication of all treated units in the most recent reporting period. The building's history includes various permit issuances for maintenance and repair work, with the most recent needing attention regarding a FISP Cycle 9C Technical Report filing requirement as of February 2024, which remains active.
