129-11 133rd Street, Queens, NY 11420

The two-family house at 129-11 133rd Street in South Ozone Park, owned by Deloris Gibbs, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years that warrant attention. Most recently, in May 2024, the building faced emergency complaints regarding cooking gas and heat/hot water issues in separate instances, though inspectors from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) were unable to gain access for proper inspection.

In July 2022, multiple complaints regarding electric/gas range appliances were filed, resulting in at least one Class C violation for inadequate gas supply to the kitchen fixtures in the second-floor apartment, and a Class B violation for missing carbon monoxide detectors. These violations were subsequently certified as addressed. Going back to 2019, there was a documented pea infestation problem in the same second-floor apartment, which received a Class B violation notice that was later certified as resolved.

The two-story, 1925-built building has consistently shown challenges with maintaining basic utilities and safety equipment, particularly in its second-floor unit, which has been the focus of multiple violations. While some past violations have been officially closed, the most recent complaints in 2024 regarding heating and cooking gas issues suggest that utility maintenance remains an ongoing concern. It's notable that in all recent complaints (2024), HPD faced access issues that prevented proper investigation of the reported problems, and in all 2022 complaints regarding the electric/gas range, violations were issued and further citations were documented, indicating a pattern of incomplete resolution processes.
