170-04 Liberty Avenue, Queens, NY 11433

The two-family house at 170-04 Liberty Avenue in Jamaica, built in 1931 and owned by Laurekins Pardovani, has a concerning history of unsanitary conditions over the past decade. Most recently, in early 2025, there was a report of pest-related issues that HPD could not inspect due to lack of access, echoing similar access problems with inspections in 2019 regarding both mold and pest complaints.

The building has experienced recurring pest-related problems, with multiple 311 service requests and Housing Maintenance Code complaints between 2019 and 2025, though no inspections were successfully conducted to verify these conditions. Additionally, the property has a documented history of rodent activity, with inspections in late 2012 and early 2013 confirming the presence of rats, suggesting a persistent vermin control challenge.

The building's maintenance record reveals a pattern of unresolved health and safety concerns, particularly regarding pests and mold, with three separate pest complaints and one mold complaint in 2019 alone, plus another pest complaint in 2025. The failure to gain access for inspections in multiple instances raises questions about ongoing communication between the housing department and the property management. While the building is classified as a two-family house with two stories, its age and documented maintenance issues suggest that the structure has faced ongoing challenges with basic habitability conditions, as evidenced by multiple reports over the years.
