Augrented Insights Report for 168-38 Jamaica Avenue

The property at 168-38 Jamaica Avenue is a 3-story, 1-unit building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Mark Ng. The building has experienced recurring issues with mold and indoor air quality in recent years, with multiple complaints filed in 2024, including emergency reports of unsanitary conditions related to mold in April 2024.

Other notable incidents in 2024 include complaints regarding an electric/gas range and heating/hot water issues, though no violations were issued following inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building has several active violations, including a Class C violation from April 2024 regarding defective self-closing doors in the foyer near apartment 3A, and a Class A violation concerning the fire escape's drop ladder shoe requirement, though these violations have since been certified as addressed. The property has maintained a consistent record of filing annual bedbug reports, with the most recent filings in 2024 showing no infested units or eradication efforts needed between November 2022-October 2023 and November 2021-October 2022.

Previous housing maintenance code violations were primarily related to bedbug reporting requirements in 2021, 2022, and 2023, all of which have been addressed. Historical inspection records from 2013 and 2014 show passed rodent inspections, and there was a complaint regarding water retention and drainage in 2021 that was found to be unsubstantiated based on department records. While the building has experienced multiple issues requiring investigation and reporting, many have been addressed promptly, with no current open violations as of April 2024 regarding mold, heating, or appliance issues.
