37-53 99th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The four-story, seven-unit residential building at 37-53 99th Street in Jackson Heights, owned by Ashok Masand, was constructed in 2009 and has experienced several notable maintenance issues over its history. Most recently, in early 2024, there was a paint/plaster complaint regarding wall conditions, though housing authorities were unable to gain access for inspection, leaving the resolution undetermined.

In 2020, multiple unsanitary conditions were reported simultaneously, including issues with pests and mold, though no violations were found upon inspection and the complaints were subsequently closed. The building has also faced administrative challenges, receiving two Class A violations in 2021 and 2022 for failing to file annual bedbug reports as required under Housing Maintenance Code regulations, though these violations were eventually closed.

On a positive note, the building's recent bedbug reporting history (2022-2024) shows no infestation incidents, with all reports indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested dwelling units. The most recent bedbug filing from December 2024 covers the period from November 2023 to October 2024, continuing the trend of confirmed non-infestation. This pattern of consistent zero infestation reports, combined with the closure of the previous bedbug violations, suggests improved compliance with pest management protocols, despite the earlier administrative lapses.
