139-01 Archer Avenue, Queens, NY 11435

At 139-01 Archer Avenue in Jamaica, this 6-story, 2017-built building owned by Vipul Patel has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly regarding pest control and elevator service. Most recently, in January 2024, the property faced multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions involving pests and a broken window guard, though no violations were issued following inspections. The building has a documented history of pest-related issues going back to 2019, with several complaints resulting in inspections where no violations were found.

There have also been two significant heat/hot water system failures affecting the entire building in December 2022 and March 2023, though these were reportedly resolved promptly. The elevator system has presented ongoing concerns, with multiple complaints between 2023 and 2025 regarding single device operation and no alternate service. The Department of Buildings issued several violations in late 2024, including issues with door zone restrictors, access panel doors, and fire stopping maintenance, with penalties totaling $3,750.

However, recent bedbug and rodent inspections have shown compliance, with the most recent bedbug report (2025) showing no infestations. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including plumbing and electrical concerns identified during 2024 semi-annual homeless shelter inspections, most recent inspections have resulted in "No Violation Warranted" findings. The property has maintained ongoing compliance with bedbug reporting requirements since 2023, consistently reporting zero infested units.
