29-21 Ericsson Street, Queens, NY 11369

The two-family house at 29-21 Ericsson Street in East Elmhurst, owned by Angel Naranjo, has experienced several notable incidents over the past several years. Most recently, in June 2024, there were emergency complaints regarding both smoke and carbon monoxide detectors that could not be inspected due to lack of access. In late 2022, there was a temporary heat and hot water outage affecting the entire building, though these services were reportedly restored by the time of inspection.

Earlier in 2022, there were two complaints about an illegally kept rooster, one of which remains open as of October 2023. The building's history includes significant construction-related issues in 2019, when three violations were issued for unpermitted work involving a wood frame dormer extension and new room, kitchen, and bathroom construction with associated electrical and plumbing work. These violations resulted in penalties totaling $6,250, though they were ultimately resolved.

The Department of Buildings records show that inspections in June and July 2019 could not gain access to the property, and a stop work order was fully rescinded in January 2020. A permit was eventually issued in October 2019 for the previously unauthorized work. The building's age (built in 1925) and recent safety-related complaints suggest ongoing maintenance concerns, though many previous violations have been resolved.
