Augrented Insights Report for 140-40 Beech Avenue

140-40 Beech Avenue is a 4-story, 33-unit residential building located in Flushing and owned by Barry Rudofsky. The 1931 "new law tenement" has experienced several notable maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recent July 2024 HPD complaints regarding water leaks and mold, with the water leak generating violations.

In October 2023, violations were issued for pest infestations and broken/missing window guards, both categorized as emergencies. The building has a history of plumbing issues, with multiple complaints between 2020-2024 regarding slow leaks, and complete systems like heating/hot water affecting the entire building (2022). Elevator maintenance complaints have been documented in 2021, and more recently in 2025, there was a complaint about defective/exposed electrical wiring that was investigated but found not to warrant a violation. More recent inspections in December 2024 revealed several building code violations requiring attention, including issues with self-closing doors, security mechanisms, and fire escape obstructions.

These included non-compliant electromagnetic locking devices and various encumbrances obstructing egress paths. The building's management has established a pattern of addressing core maintenance issues, as seen in the resolution of multiple plumbing and electrical complaints in 2020. Bedbug reports have shown a mostly clean record since 2021, with the last confirmed infestation occurring in 2019, and the most recent reports indicating zero infested units. The building's maintenance history includes periodic failures to file energy benchmarking reports, though these violations were eventually dismissed upon proper resubmission.
