Augrented Insights Report for 42-45 Kissena Boulevard

The 144-unit, 6-story building at 42-45 Kissena Boulevard in Flushing, built in 1956, has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with the most notable concerns centering around utility systems and safety features. In 2024, there was an electric power outage incident, though no violations were issued following HPD's inspection. Earlier in 2024, multiple rodent sightings were reported, with inspections confirming rat activity.

The building has faced recurring heating and gas supply issues, particularly evident in January 2023 when there were complaints about heat/hot water and cooking gas problems affecting the entire building and individual units. Safety concerns have been highlighted by various violations, including multiple open violations as of 2024 related to fire stair doors and basement ceiling conditions. The elevator system has presented ongoing challenges, with several complaints about its operation and maintenance between 2018-2024, though recent inspections indicated no violations.

The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of infrastructure and safety system deficiencies, including issues with door self-closing mechanisms, which have resulted in multiple violations being issued. While the building has shown compliance in recent bedbug inspections (2021-2025), there have been active violations related to exterior maintenance and inspection requirements, particularly regarding the required Cycle 8B reports for exterior walls and appurtenances. The property has maintained a regular schedule of pest control activities, as evidenced by multiple rodent baiting operations in 2025, though these suggest ongoing challenges with vermin control. The building's history of violations and complaints emphasizes the need for continued monitoring of utility systems, safety features, and maintenance compliance, particularly regarding the elevator system and fire safety components.
