105-26 171st Place, Queens, NY 11433

The two-family house at 105-26 171st Place in Jamaica, owned by Bx Rosedale LLC and constructed in 1996, has experienced a notable pattern of maintenance issues, particularly during the winter months of early 2023. The most concerning recurring problem was the lack of heat and hot water throughout the entire building, with multiple emergency complaints filed in January, February, and March 2023, though inspectors were often unable to gain access to verify the conditions.

The building also faced various structural challenges in early 2023, including issues with door and window frames, as well as slow water leaks, with violations issued for some window-related problems. A defective boiler complaint was filed and referred to Housing Preservation and Development in January 2023, and in March 2023, there was a complaint regarding unpermitted work, though again, inspectors were unable to gain access during their visits. Looking back at the building's history, there was a significant incident in late 2018 when the building was reported as vacant, open, and unguarded, though no violations were found upon inspection in January 2019.

The records indicate that while many complaints during the 2023 period were investigated, inspectors frequently faced access issues that prevented them from confirming the reported problems. Most of the complaints were ultimately closed, though some were marked as emergencies, particularly regarding heat and hot water issues which would directly affect resident comfort and safety. The building has undergone no major changes or renovations since records began, maintaining its original two-story, two-family configuration.
