40-23 99th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The four-story, eight-unit New Law tenement building at 40-23 99th Street in Corona, owned by Tom Sideris, was constructed in 1931 and has experienced several significant housing code violations over its history. The most notable and recent violations occurred in April 2015 in apartment 8, where multiple safety issues were identified including missing window guards, and the lack of proper smoke and carbon monoxide detectors - all of which were certified as corrected between April and May 2022.

Earlier violations from December 2008 related to improper access to the building's heating system in the first story public hall were also addressed and certified as resolved in 2022. A staircase handrail issue noted in 2000 was similarly corrected.

The building has maintained a clean record in recent years with respect to pest control, with no bedbug infestations reported in the annual filings from 2019 through 2024, and only two rodent inspections failed for unspecified reasons in 2010 and 2015, though these were followed by subsequent passing inspections. Australia's meticulous record-keeping shows consistent attention to building violations, with all documented issues being addressed and certified as resolved, primarily between 2020-2022. The building currently appears to be in good standing with no active violations or pest problems reported in the last three years of inspections and filings.
