21-39 45th Road, Queens

Three-family Long Island City walk-up with open administrative paperwork items and localized air-quality reports nearby.

A three-unit Long Island City walk-up built in 1890 where physical tenant complaints against the address are absent, but missing paperwork and neighborhood air-quality signals warrant attention before signing. Three things to know:

Open items center on missing annual disclosures and registration. There are three open items on file for this address: an invalid registration statement logged in November 2025 and two missing annual bedbug report filings from June 2025 and May 2026. While these reflect paper-compliance slip-ups rather than physical hazards, they signal loose administrative upkeep.

Surrounding blocks show recurring food-establishment and air-quality calls. Within three blocks, residents logged 5 indoor air quality calls and 5 food establishment complaints over the last year. In dense walk-up pockets, commercial kitchen venting and shared shafts can bleed odors or fumes into residential units above, making riser proximity a key detail before committing.

The immediate three-block radius sees significant double-parking and curb friction. 495 illegal-parking complaints were logged within three blocks over the past year, concentrated on blocked sidewalks (182 calls) and blocked hydrants (120 calls). This reflects heavy delivery staging and loading turnover along the surrounding curb faces.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 72 residential noise calls logged within three blocks in the past 12 months
• 92 blocked driveway complaints recorded across the surrounding three blocks over the last year
• 6 encampment calls logged within three blocks over the last 12 months
