88-11 Jamaica Avenue, Queens, NY 11421

The three-story, four-unit building at 88-11 Jamaica Avenue in Woodhaven, currently owned by Gavril Malakov, has experienced a significant number of maintenance issues in recent months, particularly in May and June 2025. Most notably, there were electrical wiring violations documented in May 2025, along with multiple complaints regarding doors, flooring, and pest-related unsanitary conditions.

Some of these complaints were investigated but could not be completed, particularly those related to doors, flooring, and pest issues in May 2025, while others were subsequently addressed with inspections. In June 2025, the building experienced several maintenance issues that were classified as both emergency and non-emergency, including problems with plumbing (sink), multiple instances of paint/plaster issues on ceilings and walls, and pest-related concerns.

Looking at the building's history, there was a documented violation in 2019 regarding the failure to file the annual boiler inspection report for 2017, though this violation was ultimately dismissed. The building, constructed in 1909, has had persistent maintenance challenges in recent years, with particular clusters of complaints emerging in May and June 2025, suggesting ongoing issues with building maintenance and resident comfort. While some of the most recent complaints have been addressed, with either inspections being conducted or violations being issued, there remains a pattern of inspection challenges, as evidenced by HPD's inability to complete several inspections in 2025.
