53-12 92nd Street, Queens, NY 11373

53-12 92nd Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building located in Elmhurst, Queens, owned by Fei Lin and constructed in 1935. The building has experienced several notable issues over the past years, particularly in 2019 when it faced multiple rodent-related complaints, including rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents, with inspections showing failed compliance on some attempts to address the problem.

During the same period, the property received multiple violations related to unsanitary garbage/recycling storage conditions, though no violations were ultimately issued by HPD following their inspections. A series of bedbug-related violations was recorded between 2019 and 2023, with the most recent inspection in March 2023 showing an open violation regarding the failure to file annual bedbug reports, though subsequent filings from 2023-2024 show zero infested or eradicated units. The building has faced ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding safety documentation and notification requirements, with open violations from August 2019 related to missing smoke detector requirements, heating system key notice, gas leak procedures, and other required postings in the public hall.

Most recently, in 2025, there was a non-emergency lighting issue reported and closed. The property has shown some improvement in recent years, with rodent issues becoming less frequent and no new bedbug violations in the most recent reporting periods. The building's violation history suggests a pattern of regulatory compliance challenges during 2019, though more recent records indicate better maintenance practices, particularly regarding pest control, with no reported infestations in the past three reporting periods.
