80-38 138th Street, Queens, NY 11435
The five-story residential building at 80-38 138th Street in Briarwood, owned by Lisha Chau, has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly concerning heat and hot water systems. Most recently, in May 2025, there were complaints about heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building, which the Department of Housing Preservation and Development was unable to investigate due to access issues.
The building has also faced consistent violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations documented in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 under Housing Maintenance Code § HMC, indicating the owner has not filed the required annual bedbug report as mandated by HPD rules. Additionally, there was a heat/hot water-related emergency complaint filed and closed in May 2025.
While a Department of Buildings complaint regarding an illegal curb cut/driveway issue was filed in 2019, it was resolved with no violation warranted upon inspection. The building's records also show an issued permit in March 2020 for unspecified work, with the job number 421960532 and permit sequence number 01. The pattern of missed bedbug report submissions over multiple years and the recent heating system complaints may warrant attention, though it's important to note that not all violations may relate directly to current resident conditions, as some may pertain to administrative compliance requirements.
