104-14 37th Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

The three-story building at 104-14 37th Avenue in Jackson Heights, owned by Yuri Almanza, has been facing ongoing maintenance challenges since at least 2021. Most recently, two Open Class A Housing Maintenance Code Violations from 2023 and 2024 remain open regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, which are mandatory under HPD rules.

The building experienced a significant heat and hot water outage in January 2022 that affected the entire building, though these services were reportedly restored shortly thereafter. Multiple violations were recorded on January 20, 2022, including issues with gas leak procedures, heating system access notices, and various required posted notices in the first-story public hall, all of which remain open. The Department of Buildings also issued an active violation in November 2019 related to a failure to file the 2017 boiler inspection report.

The building's maintenance history shows a recurring pattern of documentation and notification compliance issues, particularly regarding bedbug reporting requirements which have been cited in multiple years (2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024). While some of the earlier violations from 2022 appear to have been addressed, the persistence of both bedbug report violations and the boiler inspection violation suggests ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance. These open violations, particularly concerning building safety and maintenance documentation, indicate potential concerns with the building's overall management and response to regulatory requirements.
