164-03 119th Avenue, Queens, NY 11434

This 6-unit, 3-story residential building at 164-03 119th Avenue in Jamaica, managed by Liline Investors LLC, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in September 2022, there were multiple unsanitary condition complaints including reports of sewage problems and mold, though HPD was unable to gain access for inspection in some cases. Other complaints during that period involved garbage/recycling storage, fire escape safety, and general janitorial concerns, with varying inspection outcomes.

In November 2021, there was a heat and hot water emergency affecting the entire building, but access issues prevented proper inspection. The building has documented rodent issues, with three complaints in February 2021 leading to one violation and a follow-up inspection that passed in June 2021. More recent concerns were identified in 2024, with multiple violations found during an April inspection regarding defective door latches and self-closing mechanisms in various locations, including Apartment 1F and the building's vestibule.

The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting, with no reported infestations in the periods covering 2022-2023 and 2023-2024. The property has one illegal conversion complaint filed in October 2021, but the inspector was unable to gain access for verification during the final attempts in December 2022. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, recent months show improved compliance with bedbug reporting requirements and prompt attention to violations, as evidenced by the April 2024 inspection results, which were certified as addressed by the end of the month.
