175-21 Lauren Court, Queens, NY 11432

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 175-21 Lauren Court in Jamaica, owned by Kishore Freeman and constructed in 2013, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in late 2024, the building faced multiple health and safety concerns, with HPD investigating reports of both broken window guards and pest infestations, including mice and roaches, in the 3rd-floor apartment.

While the window guard violation was determined not to violate HPD housing laws, the pest control issues resulted in open Class C violations as of December 2024, requiring the property owner to address the infestations affecting the entire 3FL apartment. The building's maintenance record shows a concerning pattern of pest-related issues, with similar violations documented in 2024 and prior years.

Notably, violations regarding bedbug reporting obligations were issued in 2021, 2022, and 2023, suggesting possible repeated compliance challenges. While the July 2024 bedbug report filing indicated zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units during the prescribed reporting period from November 2022 to October 2023, this follows a history of at least four bedbug-related violation notices being issued from 2021 to 2024. The building, which has generally maintained Class A status, is legally required to address and correct these violations within specified timeframes, though the current open pest infestation violations remain unresolved as of the last available data.
