170-02 93rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11433

The 65-unit building at 170-02 93rd Avenue in Jamaica, owned by Yoel Fuld, has experienced recurring maintenance issues since its construction in 2006. Most notably, there has been a persistent pattern of heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, with multiple emergency complaints documented between 2018 and 2025. These outages occurred in December 2018, January 2019 (multiple instances), November 2019, and more recently in April 2024.

The building has also faced electrical problems, including two power outages in 2019 and 2022, and there have been significant concerns about pest control, with multiple rodent sightings reported between 2018 and 2025, including recent inspections in February and March 2024 showing rat activity. The property has undergone various regulatory inspections, including concerning elevator safety in 2019, which revealed multiple malfunctioning safety systems and prompted a cease-use order, though these issues were subsequently resolved. Recent inspections and complaints have highlighted several ongoing maintenance concerns. In 2024, two Class 1 violations were issued related to elevator maintenance and safety equipment.

The building has also been subject to scrutiny regarding bedbug infestations, with multiple reports filed between 2019 and 2025 showing varying numbers of affected units, with the most recent filings in late 2024 indicating three infested units. The property has passed some recent inspections, including a May 2025 rodent inspection, though previous inspections in 2024 had shown rat activity. Environmental Control Board violations from 2024 noted issues with sprinkler system maintenance and expired equipment tags, while earlier violations had addressed concerns about lighting and electrical safety along the sidewalk shed during construction. Despite these numerous issues, many violations have been resolved promptly, suggesting management responsiveness to regulatory requirements.
