HPD inspectors logged 28 open class C violations at 82-15 Britton Avenue in Elmhurst, Queens, between November 4 and November 7, 2026. Class C is the city’s “immediately hazardous” tier. The six-story, 72-unit building is owned by Jocara Realty, LLC, with Bronstein Properties LLC listed as managing agent.

Why it matters

The new batch includes roach and mouse infestation orders, a lead-based paint hazard order and orders on broken or defective locks and windows, per HPD violation records for building ID 640286. Most of the new notices cover apartment 1E and 3G.
