130-32 Kew Gardens Road, Queens, NY 11415

The 3-story, 3-unit building at 130-32 Kew Gardens Road in Richmond Hill, owned by Parmjit Kaur, has experienced recurring heating and plumbing issues over the past two years. Most notably, there have been eight documented complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building between October 2023 and March 2025, with HPD inspectors repeatedly unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

The building has also faced recent plumbing issues, with three emergency complaints in March 2025 concerning sinks/basins, though access issues similarly prevented proper inspection. Additional concerns include several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023-2024, particularly affecting the 3rd-floor apartment (3FL), where issues with smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, kitchen plaster and paint, and a rodent infestation have been documented.

The building's safety features have come under scrutiny, with earlier violations recorded for missing bedbug reports (2020-2024) and concerns about guardrails and entrance door locks. While two complaints about work without permit and site conditions endangering workers were filed in 2020 and 2024, inspections found no violations warranted at those times. Despite these ongoing issues, it's worth noting that many complaints remain open, indicating they have not been resolved or adequately addressed according to official records.
