37-19 90th Street, Queens

Small Jackson Heights four-family where administrative filings are lagging while the surrounding block faces steady curb and street activity.

A small four-unit Jackson Heights walk-up that shows an administrative paperwork gap alongside active street friction outside. Matthew DiStefano took full control via an estate transfer in January 2022. Three things to know:

Open code items are purely administrative paperwork delays. The open housing-code citations against the building stem entirely from administrative lapses: missed annual building registration statements and missing annual bedbug reporting notices. There are no active hazardous code violations or physical repair orders on file.

Curb access and block activity dominate the immediate surrounding streets. Within three blocks of the building, curb space is heavily contested, recorded in 115 blocked-driveway complaints over the last year—89 citing total loss of access—alongside 94 panhandling reports. The surrounding streets see frequent vehicle and foot traffic.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 134 residential noise calls within three blocks, driven mostly by loud music and parties
• 38 encampment calls recorded across the three-block radius over the last 12 months
• Zero DOB permit filings on record for structural or layout renovations
