106-44 Ruscoe Street, Queens, NY 11433

The 2-family house at 106-44 Ruscoe Street in Jamaica, built in 1920 and currently owned by Jean Nelzy, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past decade, with the most significant cluster of problems occurring between late 2017 and late 2018. During this period, both apartments encountered multiple heating, water, and pest-related concerns, including documented issues with heat/hot water (emergency complaints), water leaks (including violations), and pest infestations (including mice and bedbugs, with violations).

Apartment 2 was specifically cited for inadequate gas supply to kitchen fixtures in November 2018, while Apartment 1 experienced similar gas and hot water problems earlier in July 2017. Both apartments had documented ceiling issues requiring attention. More recent history shows some attempts at property maintenance, though access issues have been a recurring theme, as indicated by multiple HPD inspection notes stating they were unable to gain access to inspect reported problems.

A Department of Buildings complaint regarding illegal conversion from July 2022 was closed in February 2023 due to inspector access issues. Rodent inspections from 2011 showed initial failures for "Other Reasons," though subsequent inspections in 2017 resulted in passing grades. While several violations issued during 2018 were eventually closed (with some certified as resolved by 2020), the frequency and variety of maintenance issues reported between 2017-2018 suggest a period of significant maintenance challenges for the building during that time.
