90-46 80th Street, Queens, NY 11421

The 4-unit, 2-story building at 90-46 80th Street in Woodhaven, owned by Vishwanand Daramdas and constructed in 1931 as a New Law Tenement, has experienced several ongoing maintenance and safety issues over the past two years. Most recently, in February 2025, there were multiple heat and hot water complaints (both building-wide and apartment-specific) that were classified as emergency situations, though one building-wide complaint was closed due to lack of access for inspection. The building has a notable history of sanitary issues, with three separate unsanitary condition complaints in June 2024 related to pests, mold, and violations involving flooring, walls, and garbage storage, all of which resulted in violations being issued.

Most concerning are the current open Class C violations from July 2024 regarding a missing self-closing door in the vestibule area, and an illegally installed double-cylinder locking device on the street entrance door, both of which affect building security. The building has experienced recurring heating issues, with multiple complaints about inadequate hot water and heating systems. In June 2024, Apartment 2F was identified as having pest and rodent infestation problems, along with hot water supply issues, though currently there are no active violations related to these problems.

The property has undergone various inspections regarding rodent conditions between 2012-2013, most of which failed for various reasons, suggesting long-standing challenges with pest control. However, recent bedbug reports from 2021 and 2025 indicate no infestation problems during those reporting periods, with the most recent report showing zero infested units. The building's emergency conditions regarding heating systems, along with multiple past violations related to building maintenance and security, suggest ongoing challenges with property upkeep and resident comfort.
