137-30 159th Street, Queens, NY 11434

The two-family house at 137-30 159th Street in Jamaica, owned by Lorna Williamson, has experienced recurring heating and hot water system issues over the past two years, with the most recent complaints occurring in January 2025. There have been six documented incidents of heat and hot water problems between October 2023 and January 2025, showing a concerning pattern of recurring maintenance challenges.

While most of these complaints were resolved promptly, typically within two to four days, there were instances where HPD either could not gain access to verify conditions (November 2023) or found that heat was not required at the time of inspection (October 2023). The building, constructed in 1965, consists of two stories and contains two units, all under the building class designation of a two-family house.

It's worth noting that all complaints filed were categorized as emergency situations, highlighting the urgency of these maintenance issues. While most recent complaints have been resolved after verification of correction, the frequency of heating system problems over this period suggests potential ongoing infrastructure challenges.
