144-41 Sanford Avenue, Queens, NY 11355
144-41 Sanford Avenue is a 6-story, 156-unit residential building in Flushing, constructed in 1951 and currently owned by Sanford Equities Corp. The building has experienced recurring heating problems, with multiple heat and hot water complaints documented through early 2025, including both apartment-specific and building-wide issues, some of which resulted in HPD violations.
A pattern of maintenance and safety concerns is evident, particularly between 2024-2025, with issues ranging from plumbing problems (including leaking sink issues in May 2024) to electrical power outages. The building has also faced significant elevator safety violations, with active Environmental Control Board citations from 2021 regarding door lock monitoring and brake system issues that remain unresolved, representing potential passenger safety risks.
Recent inspections in December 2024 identified several open Housing Maintenance Code violations related to safety signage and maintenance requirements, including inadequate emergency notices and defective compactor door latches. Historical records show boiler maintenance issues, including a 2019 violation for a defective boiler, and exterior facade problems with cracked window glass blocks. While the building has maintained a clean bedbug record with no infestations reported since 2019, rodent inspections have shown inconsistent results, with failed inspections noted in 2021 and 2022, though earlier inspections in 2010 and 2016 passed.
