147-55 Ferndale Avenue, Queens, NY 11435

The 2-story, 4-unit building at 147-55 Ferndale Avenue in Jamaica, owned by Anne Dellimore and constructed in 1931, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant concerns centered around heat and hot water systems, door/window functionality, and appliance reliability. Most recently, in March 2025, HPD issued violations for door-related issues, while refrigerator problems were also documented that month, with an additional open complaint regarding refrigerator issues from June 2025.

Between October and November 2024, the building faced multiple heat and hot water complaints, with three separate incidents reported in this period, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored during HPD inspections. The building's maintenance history reveals persistent challenges in Unit 1F during 2024, including multiple violations related to door hardware, kitchen tiles, and bathroom conditions. Specifically, as of October 2024, violations were recorded for defective self-closing door mechanisms, ceramic floor tiles, and various interior surface issues, including the need for plaster repairs and paint maintenance.

The property has undergone some inspections for rodent compliance, passing in March 2023 after an initial failure in February 2023. Notably, there are several open violations from 2024 that remain unresolved as of the latest data in 2025, including issues with water leaks, bathroom conditions, and various interior finishes. While earlier complaints and violations have been addressed and closed, the building's recent history shows a pattern of recurring maintenance issues, particularly affecting Unit 1F, with multiple instances of HPD inspections resulting in violations requiring owner remediation.
