87-19 Justice Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 87-19 Justice Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Philip Chu, was constructed in 2001 and has experienced several notable events throughout its history. Most recently, the building has undergone regular bedbug reporting requirements, with the latest report filed in July 2025 showing no infested or eradicated units for the 2023-2024 period.

The property has maintained a consistent record of compliance with bedbug reporting since 2021, with no reported infestations during the corresponding periods. However, there is an active Environmental Control Board violation from February 2018 regarding unauthorized renovation work on the second floor, where partition walls were installed to convert a living room into a room without the proper permits, resulting in a $230 penalty. The building has experienced recurring administrative issues with bedbug reporting requirements, receiving violations in 2021, 2023, and 2024 for failing to file the annual report, though these violations were subsequently closed.

A complaint was filed in 2018 regarding an alleged illegal conversion of commercial space to dwelling units, though the inspector was unable to gain access during their second attempt. The property's maintenance history includes a successful rodent inspection in May 2015, which passed without issues. While the building has had some regulatory challenges, particularly related to bedbug reporting and unauthorized modifications, the most recent filings indicate a period of stability with regard to pest management.
