Augrented Insights Report for 42-55 Colden Street

The 14-story, 284-unit residential building at 42-55 Colden Street in Flushing, currently owned by Anton Lekic, has experienced notable building maintenance issues throughout 2025. Recent complaints have centered on water-related problems, with multiple reports of leaks and unsanitary conditions in June 2025, including an unsanitary drinking water tank issue investigated by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. There are two open violations from June 2025 related to paint/plaster issues and slow water leaks, along with an emergency flooring issue.

The building has documented patterns of water leakage problems, with similar complaints dating back to early 2025 and 2024. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, including garage maintenance issues (concrete spalling and exposed rebar) in 2023 with an active Environmental Control Board violation, and problems with self-closing doors and window guards that were documented in 2024 violations. A concerning pattern of access denial for inspections and multiple complaints about work being performed without permits was noted between 2022-2024.

The elevator system has undergone inspections that revealed various compliance issues, including a non-working brake monitoring switch in 2023. While there have been no reported bedbug infestations in recent years, rodent inspections in late 2023 showed evidence of rat activity, with bait applied in early 2024. The building currently has active violations for failing to file required FISP technical reports.
