Augrented Insights Report for 118-17 Union Turnpike

This 20-story, 206-unit residential building located at 118-17 Union Turnpike in Forest Hills, owned by Jeffrey Lamb and built in 1973, has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water maintenance. Notably, there were two emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water in 2023 and February 2023, and an emerging infrastructure issue was reported in December 2023 involving building vibrations, though no violation was warranted upon inspection.

The building has also faced safety equipment concerns, particularly in 2022, when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding carbon monoxide and smoke detector issues, along with various door and window problems. Inspections in 2022 related to unsanitary conditions, including garbage/storage issues, were conducted but no violations were found. The property underwent significant facade repair work in 2021-2022, during which multiple construction safety violations were issued against the contractor, Canido Basonas Construction Services, primarily related to inadequate safety measures and improper construction methods.

Currently, the building has active violations from 2025 regarding energy efficiency certification and from 2024 concerning parking structure inspection requirements. Despite these issues, the building has maintained a consistent record of addressing bedbug reports, showing zero infested units in the most recent reports from 2024, and has passed recent rodent inspections, though there were indications of rodent activity noted in 2022. Several housing maintenance code violations remain open as of the latest inspections in 2021-2022, including issues with smoke detector notices and carbon monoxide detector requirements.
