107-15 154th Street, Queens, NY 11433

This 2-family house, built in 1993 and located at 107-15 154th Street in Jamaica, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues, particularly during July 2018. The property, currently owned by Uche Nwoko, has been subject to multiple heat and hot water complaints, with at least five separate incidents reported between July 10-16, 2018, affecting both the entire building and individual apartments.

Inspection results revealed multiple violations, including inadequate hot water supply, insufficient gas supply to fixtures, missing carbon monoxide detectors, and an illegal double cylinder lock on the front gate. Of particular concern is the active Environmental Control Board violation from July 2018 regarding unauthorized occupancy of the cellar area, which was reportedly converted from storage to an apartment with a kitchen and bathroom, leading to a $6,250 penalty.

Additional violations noted during a July 22, 2018 inspection include illegal plumbing fixtures in the cellar and various code compliance issues. While some violations were subsequently closed, including a cooking gas issue, the building's maintenance history suggests recurring systems failures and potential safety hazards, particularly regarding heating, hot water, and gas systems.
