14 open violations across six units, an unfiled registration, and a recent deed transfer.
For a six-unit Queens property, 14 open housing-code citations is a high concentration. The paper trail reveals an unfiled property registration, repetitive administrative notices, and an arm's-length deed transfer. Three things to know:
The building has repeatedly missed mandatory property registration filings. Housing inspectors have logged repeated citations for failure to file a valid property registration statement, alongside administrative write-ups for missing bedbug filing reports and posted housing notices. When registration lapses, it obscures who is legally responsible for building maintenance and operations.
An open hazardous violation targets a broken lobby self-closing door. A single urgent open citation stands out: a defective self-closing entry door in the main lobby, noted alongside minor egress maintenance in the public hall. Prompt door closure is a core fire-safety requirement.
A late-2024 property transfer coincided with a cluster of heat calls. The property changed hands in late 2024 via a $950,000 transaction. Around the same period, residents logged multiple building-wide heat and hot water complaints over a tight timeframe in late 2024, though no new heat calls have been logged since.
