Augrented Insights Report for 132-40 Sanford Avenue

The 93-unit, 6-story building at 132-40 Sanford Avenue in Flushing, owned by Tal Sharon, has experienced numerous maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most concerning are ongoing problems with ventilation and air quality, with multiple complaints in 2025 indicating dust from construction and ventilation concerns. The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water issues, with emergency complaints logged in early 2025, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the problems.

The property has multiple active and recently resolved violations, including an active ECB violation from August 2024 regarding building safety, with a $2500 penalty. There have been significant concerns about self-closing doors throughout the building, with multiple violations documented in 2024 regarding defective hinges and latches on fire doors and other critical access points. Recent inspection history shows a pattern of rodent activity, with both initial and compliance inspections in 2024 revealing rat presence.

While bedbug infestations have generally been managed with no reported cases since 2020, the building continues to have active complaints regarding unauthorized construction work and ventilation issues. The Department of Buildings has multiple active violations related to failure to submit required documentation and respond to previous citations. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with basic services and building systems, with multiple agencies involved in addressing various quality of life issues throughout the property.
