84-50 169th Street, Queens, NY 11432
The 6-story, 125-unit building at 84-50 169th Street in Jamaica Hills, owned by Juan Lainez and built in 1955, has experienced significant maintenance challenges in 2025, with recurring issues particularly affecting heat and hot water systems. Between April and June 2025, there were multiple complaints and emergency service requests regarding heat/hot water problems affecting the entire building, with some incidents occurring in rapid succession. The building has also faced various sanitary and infrastructure challenges, including a mold complaint (April 2025), unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage (April 2025), and plumbing issues (April 2025). The property has recent unresolved issues with potential illegal conversions, as indicated by multiple active complaints in 2025, though inspection attempts were unsuccessful.
A significant open ECB violation from October 2024 remains active regarding the failure to submit the required parking structure report. The building's maintenance history shows periods of rodent and pest control challenges, with past infestations documented in 2019-2020, though most recent reports (2022-2024) show improved conditions with passed inspections. Inspection records from late 2024 show multiple violations in apartment 615, including issues with roach and mice infestations, bathroom repairs, and roof leaks, though some have been resolved. The building's staff and management have generally responded to complaints, as indicated by numerous closed complaint resolutions, though access issues have sometimes hindered inspections.
While the building has shown some improvement in pest control as evidenced by recent reports showing no bedbug infestations between 2022-2024, the recurring heat/hot water issues in 2025 suggest ongoing HVAC system challenges. The installation of an elevator system appears to have some unresolved matters based on recent activity in 2025. The property has a history of various building code violations related to maintenance and occupancy, though many have been resolved or dismissed. Recent inspections have shown mixed results, with some passing inspections for rodent control while others failed for unspecified reasons. The management company, Gothic Tenants Corp, has changed ownership since 2020 as shown in the records, which may impact management practices and response times to maintenance issues.
