34-41 111th Street, Queens, NY 11368

This four-story, 12-unit residential building in Jackson Heights, owned by Coronapark Realty Corp, has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues since its construction in 2001. Most recently, in 2025, there have been two notable incidents: an attempted HPD inspection regarding cooking gas issues (May 2025) that could not be completed, and an unsanitary condition complaint concerning garbage/recycling storage that was investigated but found not to violate housing laws. The building has a documented history of internal environmental challenges, including mold (2023), sewage odor (2025), and recurring rodent activity, with inspections showing rat presence as recently as September 2023.

Multiple heating and hot water complaints have been filed, including a significant incident in December 2020 where inspectors could not gain access to verify the conditions. Of particular concern are the open housing maintenance code violations from recent inspections, including requirements to file annual bedbug reports (2021-2024) and issues with building entrance security, such as defective self-closing doors and a broken mortise lock (2019). While some violations have been closed, including a specific mold issue in apartment 1B (2023) and various historical sanitation matters, the building continues to grapple with recurring maintenance challenges.

The property has undergone several rodent control measures, with bait applied multiple times between 2021 and 2022, though inspections in 2023 still showed rat activity. Recent HPD inspections have also noted inadequate gas leak notification procedures and various general maintenance issues, including a cooking gas inspection that could not be completed. The building's history suggests ongoing challenges with basic maintenance systems, particularly regarding environmental conditions and pest control, despite some violations being addressed over time.
