37-17 111th Street, Queens, NY 11368

The 30-unit, 5-story residential building at 37-17 111th Street, owned by Munlai Chang and constructed in 2009, is currently facing several maintenance challenges as of September 2025. The most significant issues revolve around ongoing water damage concerns, with multiple open violations documented from September 2023 related to roof leaks affecting various rooms and walls in apartment 5A, as well as issues with plastered surfaces requiring repair and repainting.

The building also has open violations from September 2023 regarding the need to properly display building registration information at the entrance. While there are records of housing maintenance code violations being addressed between September and November 2023, including elevator maintenance issues and door/window frame concerns, these problems indicate a pattern of maintenance needs rather than isolated incidents.

The building's safety features have come into focus with two violations (now closed) regarding fire door self-closing mechanisms in September 2023, though the resolution of these violations suggests prompt attention to fire safety concerns. In terms of pest management, the building has maintained a consistent record of being bedbug-free since at least 2019, with no reported infestations or eradications in the annual bedbug reporting periods. A relatively recent 311 complaint from September 2024 regarding a mobile food vendor was handled by the NYC Health Department, though this appears unrelated to building conditions.
