124-11 Jamaica Avenue, Queens, NY 11418

The three-story, four-unit building at 124-11 Jamaica Avenue in Richmond Hill, owned by 124 Jamaica Av LLC, was constructed in 1910 and has experienced several maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water systems, with emergency complaints filed and resolved in late 2022 (December and November), though inspections found no violations. The building has multiple open violations from 2022, including issues with a broken light fixture in the public hall and pest infestations in apartment 2 (roaches and mice).

Multiple maintenance complaints were filed in April 2022 regarding ceiling paint/plaster, cabinet issues, and water leaks, some of which remain open. Earlier issues in 2021 included pest problems and various maintenance complaints, with several instances of failed inspection access. The property has a documented history of rodent issues, with inspections showing failed results for rat activity in 2010 and 2018, though these appeared to have improved in subsequent inspections.

Past complaints indicate concerns about unauthorized modifications, including illegal conversions and unlicensed work, particularly between 2018-2019, though inspections did not find violations in all cases. A minor environmental violation regarding a mini-split A/C system installation was resolved in 2019, and there was one documented bedbug report in 2022 covering the period from 2020-2021, though no infestations were confirmed. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing upkeep challenges, with multiple open violations and repeated complaints about various systems and conditions.
