88-09 173rd Street, Queens, NY 11432

The three-story, three-unit residential building at 88-09 173rd Street in Jamaica, owned by Laila Sikder and constructed in 2007, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, from November 2022 through March 2023 and again in March 2023, there were multiple unaddressed complaints about water leaks (both slow and heavy flow), ceiling paint/plaster issues, and various other maintenance concerns including problems with doors/windows, plumbing fixtures (toilet and basin/sink), electrical lighting, and wall surfaces.

In 2022, there was also a documented unsanitary condition involving pests. The building's maintenance history shows three consecutive years of reporting zero bedbug infestations (2019-2022 filing periods), though an annual bedbug report violation was recorded in March 2022.

Earlier concerns from 2018-2019 involved unauthorized modifications to the property's driveway access, with the Department of Buildings issuing violations related to illegal curb cut installation, though these were resolved with one penalty of $250. The building's overall repair history indicates that HPD inspection access was not granted for multiple complaints in both 2022 and 2023, leading to the closure of several service requests without formal resolution. While the property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs in recent years, the persistence of water-related issues and other maintenance concerns suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep.
