86-28 80th Street, Queens, NY 11421

The two-story, four-unit residential building at 86-28 80th Street in Woodhaven, owned by Evert Williams, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues over recent years.

Most notably, in late December 2022, there was an emergency incident involving loss of heat and hot water throughout the entire building, though these services were reportedly restored within a week according to both HPD and Housing Maintenance Code complaint records. The building has also faced recurring issues with compliance to bedbug reporting requirements, with multiple open violations from 2021 through 2024 indicating failure to file the necessary annual bedbug reports as mandated under Housing Maintenance Code rules.

Additionally, there are several open violations from January 2023 related to safety communication requirements, including the need to post procedures for suspected gas leaks in public areas, provide information about the agency's housing guide in both English and Spanish, and display a properly framed certificate of inspection visits near the mailboxes. While there do not appear to be any immediate safety concerns documented in the past year, it is worth noting that a Department of Buildings complaint investigation in March 2025 was marked as "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" on its second final attempt, though this complaint was not directly related to housing maintenance concerns and was subsequently closed.
