32-35 103rd Street, Queens, NY 11369

The two-family building at 32-35 103rd Street in East Elmhurst, owned by Douglas Murray and constructed in 1930, has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout its recent history. Most notably, there were two incidents of complete building-wide heat and hot water failures, one in December 2024 and another in March 2022, both classified as emergencies and requiring HPD intervention.

In both cases, the issues were reportedly resolved before or during the HPD inspection, though the pattern of such complaints suggests ongoing concerns with the building's heating system. The building has also faced regulatory compliance challenges related to bedbug reporting. Between 2021 and 2024, the property received four violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports according to HPD regulations.

However, the property's most recent bedbug reports from May 2024 and May 2022 indicate no infestations during the respective reporting periods (2022-2023 and 2020-2021), with zero affected units, units requiring eradication, or re-infested units. This suggests that while there were compliance issues regarding report filing, the building may not have experienced actual bedbug infestations during the past two reporting periods. The building's historical complaints and violations, while significant, show that management has generally addressed issues promptly when they arise, though the pattern of heating system failures warrants attention.
