114-40 142nd Street, Queens, NY 11436

The two-family house at 114-40 142nd Street in Jamaica, owned by Prince Singh, has been facing ongoing maintenance challenges since 2018. The first-floor apartment (Apartment 1) shows particularly concerning conditions, with multiple open violations documented on January 31, 2018.

These include a bedbug infestation (Class B violation), security concerns with a broken or defective door lock (Class C violation), and significant maintenance issues involving broken plastered surfaces and paint requirements in both the kitchen and one additional room (Class B violations). Additionally, there are two violations related to the building's entrance security: an illegal double cylinder lock on the storm door (Class C violation) and a requirement to refit the building entrance storm metal door (Class A violation), both indicating potential security and safety concerns for residents.

The extensive list of open violations from 2018, ranging from Class A to Class C severity levels, suggests a pattern of deferred maintenance that has persisted without resolution for over five years. While these violations are now documented as "Open" with no recent updates or certifications provided, it is important to note that the provided data only covers up to October 2023, and the status of these violations could have changed since that time. The date of these violations (January 2018) is significant as it indicates these issues have remained unaddressed for an extended period, potentially impacting resident comfort and safety.
