45-06 102nd Street, Queens, NY 11368

The two-family house at 45-06 102nd Street in Corona, owned by Jiangwei Zhou, has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues over the past several years. Most significantly, between December 2021 and January 2022, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water problems affecting the entire building and individual apartments, with inspections repeatedly hindered by denied access.

The building has also faced electrical and safety concerns, with five emergency complaints in February 2024 alone, including issues with fire escape, wiring, safety sprinkler systems, door problems, and lighting. Previous investigations revealed a pattern of access denial, particularly regarding illegal conversion and boiler-related complaints between 2020-2022. The property has undergone various maintenance challenges, including appliance issues (electric/gas range) in both 2021 and 2022, and a door/window complaint in December 2021.

Several inspections conducted by the Department of Buildings between 2020-2022 were unable to gain access, including concerns about illegal work, egress problems, and boiler defects. While most recent issues have been addressed according to closure records, the building's history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding building systems such as heating and electrical infrastructure. The most recent complaints from early 2024 indicate that building systems and safety features continue to require monitoring and maintenance attention.
