130-20 177th Street, Queens, NY 11434

This two-family residential building at 130-20 177th Street in Jamaica, owned by Milk Holdings, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most recently, in July 2024, there was a heavy water leak that required intervention from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), which resulted in violations being issued.

The property has also faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with two separate incidents in January 2023 that required emergency responses from HPD; while one of these incidents was resolved during inspection, violations were issued for the other. Additionally, there was an electrical power outage in February 2023 that prompted immediate emergency response, though no violations were recorded for this event.

In terms of structural and regulatory matters, the building experienced an investigation in May 2023 regarding an alleged illegal conversion (at a different address with the same ownership), which was ultimately found to have no violations warranting action at the time of inspection. While the building has been responsive to service requests with prompt closures of these incidents, the pattern of heating and water-related complaints, including the most recent water leak as of July 2024, suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges that have required multiple emergency interventions over the past two years.
