54-37 101st Street, Queens, NY 11368

The 10-unit, 4-story apartment building at 54-37 101st Street in Corona, owned by David Huang and built in 2008, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past two years. Most recently, in December 2024, there were plumbing and heat/hot water issues that were reported and subsequently resolved, though an HPD inspector couldn't access the building during a pest-related inspection in the same period.

The building has shown recurring pest problems, with multiple pest-related complaints filed between 2024 and 2023, including an active violation regarding mice infestation in apartment 2B from October 2024 and various unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage. Before this, there were several violations and maintenance issues including problems with the pavement outside the building (October 2024), a faulty refrigerator (March 2024), and flooring concerns. Notably, in 2024, apartment 2B received multiple violations for various issues including problems with self-closing doors, a broken refrigerator door gasket, and missing carbon monoxide detectors.

The building underwent some structural concerns in 2021 when violations were issued regarding improper occupancy of the cellar space, which had been converted into an apartment with kitchen and bathroom facilities. While the building's bedbug reporting shows zero infestation cases since 2019 and there have been passing rodent inspections in 2023, there were periods of rat activity noted in both 2023 and 2022, suggesting ongoing pest management challenges. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent filings showing no recorded infestations.
