Augrented Insights Report for 185-01 Hillside Avenue

The 125-unit, 6-story residential building at 185-01 Hillside Avenue in Jamaica Estates, owned by Danielle Kafri, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past year and a half. Most recently, in early 2025, there were complaints about heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building. In December 2024, multiple complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions, including mold, and problems with paint and plaster on ceilings and walls, though HPD was unable to complete inspections in these cases.

The building has a concerning history of heating system problems, with multiple heat and hot water complaints recorded throughout 2024, including an emergency violation for scalding water at 133 degrees in apartment 2J. Other notable issues include a pattern of pest problems, with rodent activity noted in late 2024 and mid-2023, and a bedbug infestation reported in 2022-2023. The elevator system has been a recurring source of complaints, with multiple reports of inadequate service and maintenance issues between 2019 and 2024.

Environmental Control Board violations from 2020-2024 indicate persistent problems with elevator oil leaks and maintenance, though these were ultimately resolved without penalties. The building's infrastructure has been subject to various violations and complaints regarding elevators, sanitation, and safety systems, including a 2024 violation for mold that required abatement. While the building passed recent rodent inspections in March 2025 and showed no bedbug activity in the most recent reporting period (2023-2024), the pattern of maintenance issues, particularly regarding heating systems and elevator service, suggests ongoing challenges with building operations and maintenance response.
