80-15 Grenfell Street, Queens, NY 11415
80-15 Grenfell Street, a 6-story New Law tenement building in Kew Gardens built in 1930 and containing 128 units, has experienced significant recurring issues with heating and hot water systems throughout 2024-2025. The building faced multiple emergency heat/hot water complaints between January and March 2025, with similar complaints documented in October 2024.
Recent inspections also revealed concerning safety and maintenance issues, including open violations for missing carbon monoxide detectors, non-functional smoke detectors, and lead paint hazards in Apartment C19 from August 2024. The building's security infrastructure has been under scrutiny, with violations issued in October 2024 regarding unauthorized electromagnetic locking devices at the main entrance, though previous similar violations from May 2023 were closed after addressing self-closing door requirements. The property has shown some progress in addressing bedbug infestations, with four units reported affected in one instance in 2023-2024, though only one confirmed unit in the most recent reporting period ending 2024-2025.
Infrastructure maintenance issues are evident, with active violations regarding failure to file required inspection reports for external structures, including a 2022 unresolved violation related to clay roof shingles. While there have been historical complaints about construction lead dust (currently open as of May 2025), building management has generally responded to 311 service requests, with cases often being closed after inspections confirmed issues were resolved, though some violations remain open. The building's ownership and management, represented by Ari Benedict, has seen various compliance inspections, including Local Law 188/17 requirements, with mixed results regarding adherence to regulations.
