108-05 36th Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The 4-story, 3-unit residential building at 108-05 36th Avenue in Jackson Heights, owned by Qiu Yun Lin and completed in 2004, has experienced several concerning issues in recent months. Most notably, there were two emergency water leak complaints in 2023 involving heavy flow, with one incident in June that HPD was unable to inspect due to access issues.

The building has also faced multiple maintenance challenges in 2023, including an unsanitary condition complaint regarding mold and issues with ceiling paint/plaster, though inspections did not result in any violations being issued. The property's inspection history reveals a series of violations and compliance requirements between 2018-2023, though all have been closed. These included safety-related matters such as the need to remove an illegal double-cylinder lock from the building entrance (November 2023), and multiple annual bedbug reporting requirements (2021-2023).

Earlier violations from 2018 related to safety protocols included requirements to post gas leak procedures, smoke detector, and carbon monoxide detector requirements, as well as maintaining proper building entrance door functionality and signage. The most recent bedbug report (January 2024) covering the period from November 2022 to October 2023 shows no infestations, eradications, or re-infestations, indicating successful compliance with reporting requirements. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues, most recent HPD inspections have generally not resulted in formal violations being issued, and many historical compliance issues have been addressed.
