90-37 52nd Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

The three-story residential building at 90-37 52nd Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Peter Li, was constructed in 2005 and contains 4 units. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, with a noteworthy cluster of plumbing and appliance problems reported in October 2018, including complaints about sinks, bathtubs, and an electric/gas range.

All these complaints were ultimately closed due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's inability to gain access for inspection. Between 2022 and 2024, the building received three consecutive violations related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports, although recent filings for 2024 show no evidence of bedbug infestation during the previous reporting periods (2020-2024), with all recent reports indicating zero infested or re-infested units. The building's regulatory history includes two significant complaints where inspectors were unable to gain access: one regarding unauthorized work in an occupied multiple dwelling in February 2022, and another concerning an alleged illegal conversion in October 2018.

Both these complaints were marked as closed. A rodent inspection in June 2015 resulted in a passing grade, indicating no rodent issues at that time. Despite the historical maintenance issues, the most recent documentation suggests an absence of current infestations or major violations, though it's worth noting that multiple inspection attempts have been met with access difficulties in the past, which may be an ongoing concern affecting both maintenance oversight and resident responsiveness.
