222-89 Braddock Avenue, Queens, NY 11428

222-89 Braddock Avenue is a 48-unit, 6-story residential building constructed in 1964 in Bellerose, owned by Braddock Avenue Owners Inc. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water systems, particularly during early 2025, when there were multiple complaints (eight in total between January and February 2025) about lack of heat and hot water throughout the building, though in each case, systems were reported to be restored before inspections could confirm the issues. Similar heat and hot water complaints occurred between November 2023 and January 2025, suggesting a persistent system problem.

The building underwent a series of Housing Maintenance Code inspections in November 2023, resulting in four Class A violations related to posting requirements for safety and housing information notices, though these were certified as corrected by November 2023. More recent inspections in 2024-2025 have shown compliance with Local Law 188/17, with no bedbug or rodent infestation issues reported since at least 2018, and the building passed its most recent rodent inspection in 2012. There are two active violations from 2022 regarding swarm conditions and an unsafe report, though specific details on these violations are not provided in the available records.

The building's inspection history shows a pattern of heat-related complaints spanning several months, with the most recent set of complaints occurring earlier this year. The property has generally maintained compliance with bedbug eradication protocols, showing no infestations since 2019. While the building has had various maintenance issues over the years, including the need for repairs to a kitchen cabinet in apartment 2E (noted in a 2018 violation), recent records indicate improved response times and resolution rates for housing maintenance complaints.
