147-02 Foch Boulevard, Queens, NY 11436

The two-family house at 147-02 Foch Boulevard in Jamaica, owned by Miguel Abreu, has experienced multiple recurring maintenance issues in recent years that warrant attention. The building, constructed in 1930 and containing three units over two stories, currently has open violations from November 2023 related to apartment 2's kitchen sink (both drainage and obstruction issues), as well as safety concerns including an illegally fastened padlockable sliding bolt on the entrance door and a defective wooden stair tread in the public hallway.

The property has documented three clusters of maintenance issues between September 2024 and March 2025, including multiple complaints about water leaks (both heavy flow and slow leaks), electric power outages, and wall paint/plaster problems, with several of these incidents categorized as emergencies. Notably, HPD has been unable to complete inspections for these recent complaints, suggesting access issues.

In addition to these ongoing concerns, there was a significant plumbing-related complaint about water supply issues in December 2023 that took several months to close. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of infrastructure challenges, particularly regarding water systems and electrical reliability, with violations and complaints spanning various aspects of building maintenance, including basic utilities and safety features.
