76-13 85th Road, Queens, NY 11421

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 76-13 85th Road in Woodhaven, owned by 76-13 85th Road LLC, has significant maintenance history dating back to 2020. Most notably, there have been recurring heat and hot water issues, with two documented complaints in May 2020 regarding these essential services, one of which resulted in violations being issued.

Though some heat and hot water problems appeared to be resolved temporarily, they were concerning enough to warrant multiple emergency complaints. More recently, in 2021, there was a plumbing issue involving a basin/sink that was investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) but resulted in no violations being issued. Of particular concern are the four open violations related to annual bedbug reporting requirements, which have persisted from 2021 through 2024, suggesting ongoing non-compliance with housing maintenance code requirements.

There is also an open violation from May 2020 regarding the provision of hot water to all fixtures in the 1st floor apartment, and another open violation concerning access to the building's heating system boiler room. An attempted investigation regarding an illegal conversion complaint in September 2021 was marked as "Access Denied – 2nd Attempt" during a November 2022 inspection. These maintenance and compliance issues, particularly the ongoing bedbug report violations and heating system access problem, indicate potential challenges with building maintenance and oversight.
