101-08 Martense Avenue, Queens, NY 11368

101-08 Martense Avenue is a 4-story, 4-unit residential building in Corona that was constructed in 2012 and is currently owned by Joseph Yahudaii. The building has experienced several notable maintenance issues, with the most concerning being recurring heat and hot water problems.

In September 2022, there were two emergency complaints regarding inadequate heat and hot water, which resulted in multiple violations, including defective carbon monoxide detectors and missing smoke detectors in Apartment 1, as well as hot water issues that were subsequently resolved. The building has a documented history of pest-related problems, with multiple complaints filed in November 2019 regarding unsanitary conditions and pests, alongside various maintenance issues including problems with appliances (electric/gas range and refrigerator), walls (paint/plaster), and cabinets. There were also rodent inspection failures in January and February 2019, though an initial inspection in May 2012 had passed.

More recently, between 2021 and 2025, there have been no reported bedbug infestations, with consistent reports showing zero affected units. In September 2022, multiple violations were issued regarding building safety systems, including the need for proper gas leak notification procedures, maintenance of heating system access notice, and various posting requirements in the common areas, though most of these were subsequently closed. The building's maintenance record shows some pattern of recurring issues, particularly in 2022 and 2019, while more recent records from 2023-2025 indicate improved conditions with no major reported infestations.
