103-02 Corona Avenue, Queens, NY 11368
The two-story, four-unit building at 103-02 Corona Avenue, owned by Shao Yun Chen and constructed in 1931, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, during March-May 2023, the building faced multiple violations including unsanitary garbage storage conditions, radiator problems, window frame issues, and various repairs required for walls and floors. The building underwent a comprehensive inspection in May 2023, leading to multiple Housing Maintenance Code violations for Apartment 2B, including issues with windows, bathroom ventilation, radiator, plastered surfaces, and window guards.
Earlier complaints from December 2021 documented electrical problems and pest issues, though inspectors were unable to gain access for verification at that time. The property has a documented history of illegal conversion issues, with complaints filed in 2020 regarding unauthorized subdivision of retail space on the first floor, which resulted in Environmental Control Board violations. These violations, still active as of 2021, included failure to comply with correction orders and unauthorized work without proper permits, carrying penalties of $1,250 each.
While the building experienced a heating and hot water outage in January 2022, these services were reportedly restored shortly thereafter. Current records show no active bedbug or rodent infestation issues, with the most recent bedbug reporting (June 2024) indicating no infested units, and the building has passed rodent inspections in December 2012, 2020, and 2020. ***Recent Repairs and Violations: 2023*** - Garbage Storage Violation (HPD) - Radiator Violation (HPD) - Window Frame Violation (HPD) - Wall Repair Violation (HPD) ***Past Issues and Remediation: 2022-2023*** - Heating/Hot Water Outage (restored) - Electrical Issues (access denied for inspection) - Pest Issues (access denied for inspection) ***Illegal Conversion Matters: 2020*** - Illegal Subdivision of Store Space (two complaints) - ECB Violations with $1,250 penalties each (still active) ***Current Conditions:*** - No documented bedbug or rodent infestations since 2020-2021 - Recent bedbug reports show no infested units (2022-2023 filing period) - Property passed all rodent inspections (2012, 2020) The building has a pattern of maintenance issues requiring attention, particularly in 2023, but recent records indicate improved conditions regarding pest control and heat/hot water services. The active ECB violations regarding unauthorized alterations to the retail space remain a significant outstanding issue, though these violations have not resulted in any penalties due.
