90-27 52nd Avenue, Queens, NY 11373

The three-story, four-unit residential building at 90-27 52nd Avenue in Elmhurst, owned by Corina Chan and built in 1975, has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, in February 2023, there were emergency complaints regarding heat/hot water and plumbing issues affecting basins/sinks, though the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect the reported problems.

The building currently has four open violations from 2021-2024 related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under Section A of the Housing Maintenance Code, with the most recent violation recorded in April 2024. Additionally, there was a Department of Buildings complaint in September 2018 regarding an illegal conversion, though inspectors were denied access to the property during their attempts to investigate.

The building's maintenance history shows some positive aspects, including passing a rodent inspection in June 2015. However, the pattern of bedbug report violations over multiple years and the recent heating/plumbing issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. The property's system of documentation indicates that when inspectors have attempted to address complaints, access to inspect the reported issues has consistently been denied, making it difficult to confirm whether these problems were resolved.
