Kuros, a construction safety inspector, made headlines this summer when she filed a $20 million sexual harassment lawsuit, claiming she had been groped and propositioned while working at a construction site.
The identities of the survivors have not been released, but they have been described as a 16-year-old girl, believed to be Kuros' daughter, as well as a 52-year-old man and a 50-year-old man. They are all listed in critical but stable condition.
The fire department responded just after 3 a.m. to the building on 71st Avenue, part of the Pomonok Housing Development, in Flushing.
The 6th-floor fire was under control about an hour later.
Four firefighters also suffered minor injures.
The cause is under investigation.
