94-40 116th Street, Queens, NY 11419

The property at 94-40 116th Street in Richmond Hill is a two-family house built in 1910, currently owned by Anet Manhoralall. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant problems occurring in early 2023 when multiple emergency heat and hot water complaints were filed between March and April, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building.

These complaints were notable for the inability of the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) to gain access to conduct inspections, resulting in closed cases with no verified resolutions. In late 2022, the building faced unsanitary sewage conditions, again with multiple complaints filed and similar access issues preventing proper inspections. Additional maintenance concerns were documented in September 2022, including plumbing issues with toilets and bathtubs/showers, as well as problems with ceiling paint/plaster that resulted in building violations.

The Department of Buildings has recent activity on record for the address, including a 2024 complaint regarding illegal conversion, though inspection attempts in 2025 were unsuccessful. There was also a drainage-related complaint filed in January 2022, which was investigated in April of the same year but resulted in no violations being found at the time of inspection. The building's maintenance history suggests persistent challenges with access to units for inspection purposes, as evidenced by multiple complaints having this same resolution.
