105-04 32nd Avenue, Queens, NY 11369

The 4-unit, 2-story tenement building at 105-04 32nd Avenue in East Elmhurst, owned by Nafiz Rahman, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, there have been recurring problems with heat and hot water, with complaints filed in both February 2023 (apartment only) and April 2022 (entire building), though HPD could not gain access for inspection in the 2023 incident.

The building has also dealt with various maintenance violations, particularly in early 2022, including issues with the radiator system, electrical systems, plumbing, mold, and general unsanitary conditions. The property underwent multiple inspections in February-March 2022, resulting in several violations, though most were subsequently closed. More recent concerns emerged in early 2023, when inspections revealed multiple open violations, including improper locking devices in apartment 1R, missing safety notices for smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in common areas, and heating system access issues.

These violations were part of a larger pattern of maintenance challenges, including a rodent inspection failure in April 2022 and multiple bedbug reporting requirements from 2021-2024 showing no infestations or eradications. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent report from December 2024 showing zero infested units for the 2023-2024 period. As of the latest available data from April 2024, there are still several open violations requiring resolution, including the need to file annual bedbug reports and address various safety requirements.
