84-38 120th Street, Queens, NY 11415

This 4-story, 19-unit New Law Tenement building located at 84-38 120th Street in Kew Gardens was built in 1927 and is currently owned by Robert Peck. The building has experienced several maintenance issues in 2024, particularly during July when multiple 311 complaints were filed and subsequently investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The most significant issues included water leaks (both slow and damp spots), problems with paint and plaster on ceilings, radiators, and window frames, as well as windows that required repairs.

Some violations were issued during these inspections, most notably related to water leaks, ceiling issues, and radiator maintenance. Of particular concern was an infestation of roaches identified in apartment 3E during a July 2024 inspection, with an associated violation requiring remediation. Although multiple service requests and violations were documented in mid-2024, they were generally addressed and closed promptly.

The building has a good track record regarding bedbug issues, with no reported infestations in the past seven years (2018-2025). A Department of Buildings permit was issued in August 2019 for exterior work, though specific details of this work were not provided in the available data. While the building has exhibited some maintenance challenges recently, particularly regarding water-related issues and interior maintenance, the property has a history of prompt response and resolution of reported problems.
