84-44 Lefferts Boulevard, Queens, NY 11415

The four-story, four-unit building at 84-44 Lefferts Boulevard in Kew Gardens, owned by Akiva Emergi, was constructed in 2008 and has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly during the latter half of 2022. In November 2022, the building faced multiple housing code violations in apartment 4, including inadequate hot and cold water supply issues in both bathrooms, mold problems, and various ceiling and wall repair needs.

Specifically, violations were documented for problems with the second bathroom's fixtures and the third room's ceiling mold, which eventually resulted in an upgrade from a Class B to a Class A violation under the Housing Maintenance Code. The building also experienced water leak issues during this period, with multiple complaints about slow leaks and unsanitary conditions being reported and investigated.

More recent records from 2023-2025 show no bedbug infestations have been reported in any dwelling units, and rodent inspections from 2019 indicate mixed results, with a failed inspection in April 2019 followed by passing compliance in June 2019. As of the most recent data available through October 2023, there have been no new significant complaints or violations recorded, and the building has maintained a consistent record of zero bedbug infestations being reported in the past several years. However, it's notable that several violations from the 2022 inspection remain classified as "Open," including issues with the hot and cold water supply in the fourth-floor apartment's bathrooms, though other violations from that period have been marked as "Closed."
