88-52 53rd Avenue, Queens, NY 11373
This two-story, three-unit residential building at 88-52 53rd Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Hao Chen, has experienced some notable issues in recent years, particularly regarding heat and hot water availability. Most recently, in November 2024, the New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) received complaints about inadequate heat or hot water, but was unable to gain access for inspection.
The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years, with no documented cases of infestation in any of the annual reports filed between 2022 and 2025, showing zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. The property has maintained its legal status as a Class A building since its conversion, though it has experienced recurring violations related to bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024, which were subsequently closed.
Of particular note is the building's only documented rodent inspection from May 2015, which resulted in a passing grade, indicating no rodent issues at that time. While the building has had recurring issues with heat and hot water availability, as indicated by the recent complaints, its overall maintenance record shows regular compliance with reporting requirements and no major pest control issues in recent years, with all historical bedbug violations showing prompt resolution.
