106-40 Sutphin Boulevard, Queens, NY 11435

The property at 106-40 Sutphin Boulevard in Jamaica is a two-story, two-family house built in 1920, currently owned by Devendra Balkarran. The building's recent history shows some concerning patterns, particularly regarding infrastructure and maintenance issues.

Most notably, in September 2024, a Full Stop Work Order was issued following an inspection on October 2, 2024, in response to an unpermitted work complaint logged just weeks earlier. This suggests potential ongoing compliance issues with building regulations. Looking back to the earlier history of the property, there were two significant incidents in 2018-2019 that raised concerns about building conditions.

In August 2018, there was an emergency complaint regarding unsanitary sewage conditions, though inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the issue, and the case was closed without resolution confirmation. This was followed by a power outage incident in January 2019 that warranted an immediate emergency response from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, resulting in violation issuance, though specific details about the violations were not provided in the available data. The combination of a recent stop work order and historical issues with basic services like electricity and sanitation suggests that while the building has received official attention to various concerns, there may still be underlying maintenance and compliance issues that warrant attention.
