37-19 108th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The 7-unit, 4-story residential building at 37-19 108th Street in Jackson Heights, owned by Nick Azizi and constructed in 2008, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, there are currently open violations from 2023-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by housing maintenance code.

In 2018, the building had multiple maintenance issues documented through 311 service requests and housing maintenance code complaints, including unsanitary conditions (mold), safety concerns (carbon monoxide detector), and various building system problems such as plumbing issues (sink, bathtub/shower), electrical problems (outlet/switch), appliance-related concerns (electric/gas range, refrigerator), and other maintenance needs including door repairs and water leaks. While most of these complaints were ultimately closed, the building received violations in 2018 related to the improper posting of smoke detector requirements and housing information guide notices. More recent issues have emerged regarding the building's occupancy status, with a 2022 Environmental Control Board violation noting occupancy without a valid certificate of occupancy, which carries a $1,250 penalty that remains outstanding.

The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in the past five reporting periods, with no reports of infested or re-infested dwelling units since 2020. While numerous maintenance issues were documented in 2018, it's worth noting that most of those complaints were addressed and closed. The Department of Buildings conducted inspections in 2021 and 2022, though these primarily related to other addresses and issues not directly connected to this building.
