55-04 103rd Street, Queens, NY 11368

The two-family house at 55-04 103rd Street in Corona, owned by Benno Schubert, is a two-story building constructed in 1920 containing three residential units. The most significant incidents in recent history occurred in 2018, when the property was involved in a series of construction-related violations and complaints.

These began with a September 15, 2018 complaint regarding unsafe conditions at an adjacent building (11368), which led to multiple Environmental Control Board violations in late 2018 related to failure to safeguard persons and property during exterior work, particularly concerning a rear extension's damaged exterior wall and openings created. These violations were ultimately resolved with no penalties imposed, and a related Department of Buildings violation for failure to certify correction of an immediately hazardous condition was dismissed in January 2019.

Earlier concerns about the building's condition emerged in 2011 and 2012, with rodent inspections showing initial rat activity in August 2011, though subsequent inspections in August 2011 and May 2012 passed without issues. It's noteworthy that all violations and complaints from 2018 appear to have been resolved within a reasonable timeframe, with no recent building complaints or violations on record since early 2019, suggesting improved compliance with safety requirements in recent years.
