138-02 90th Avenue, Queens, NY 11435

The two-family house at 138-02 90th Avenue in Jamaica, owned by Akhtar Ali, has experienced a series of concerning maintenance issues in 2025. Between February and May 2025, the building received multiple complaints that were not able to be properly inspected by HPD due to access issues.

These complaints included problems with the water leak (classified as heavy flow and marked as an emergency), electrical wiring (emergency), window frame (emergency), ventilation system (non-emergency), floor issues (non-emergency), and bell/buzzer/intercom system (non-emergency). All these complaints were formally closed when inspectors could not gain access to perform necessary evaluations, with HPD recommending that new service requests be submitted if issues persisted. The building's maintenance history shows a mix of inspections and compliance issues over the years.

While rodent inspections in 2016 and 2017 resulted in passing grades, two inspections in 2010 (April and June) failed for unspecified reasons. The property's age (built in 1925) and classification as a two-family house suggest it has undergone typical urban building wear and tear, though the clustering of 2025 complaints and multiple system issues is notable. The unsatisfactory access for inspectors to assess reported problems in 2025 raises questions about communication and coordination regarding building maintenance and inspections.
