99-27 Corona Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The 4-story, 4-unit residential building at 99-27 Corona Avenue in Corona, owned by Ji Yu and constructed in 2004, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. Most recently, in 2023, there were multiple unsanitary conditions reported, including mold (May 2023), pests (April and October 2023), and a garbage/recycling storage issue (May 2023), with several complaints going unresolved due to lack of access for inspections. The building has also faced recurring heat and hot water problems, with emergency complaints filed in both 2020 and 2023 regarding these essential services.

Structural and safety concerns include two open violations from May 2023 related to building code compliance: one regarding a defective fire door at the first public hall bulkhead, and another concerning an illegal fastening key-operated door knob. The property has a history of unauthorized use, as evidenced by two Environmental Control Board violations from October 2021, where the owner was fined for occupying the building contrary to its Certificate of Occupancy and for installing unauthorized plumbing work in the cellar. These issues were subsequently resolved.

Earlier violations from 2019 indicated problems with carbon monoxide detection and heating system access. While the building underwent rodent inspections in 2012 and 2015, showing some initial compliance failures, there have been no rodent-related complaints since then. The most recent bedbug report for 2024 shows no current or previously infested units, with all reported infestations being successfully eradicated. The building's management has been required to file annual bedbug reports, with the most recent notification issued in April 2024.
