56-22 Waldron Street, Queens, NY 11368

56-22 Waldron Street in Corona is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1991, currently owned by Kaberi Chaudhuri. The property has experienced recurring heating and hot water issues, particularly in the latter half of 2023, with multiple emergency complaints regarding the entire building's heating system recorded in October 2023 and April 2023.

While most of these complaints were resolved swiftly, two instances in October 2023 resulted in HPD unable to gain access for inspection. The building also faced infrastructure challenges in 2023, including problems with doors/windows (October 2023) and a malfunctioning bell/buzzer/intercom system (April 2023), the latter resulting in violations for defective self-closing doors at the public hall on the 1st story. The building's historical maintenance record reveals several issues requiring attention, particularly concerning Apartment 1B in early 2020, where violations were documented for hot water supply, bathroom tile condition, kitchen wall surface, and electrical systems.

Additionally, there is an active Department of Buildings violation from January 2020 regarding an unfiled annual boiler inspection report. Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding pest management, with no reported cases of bedbugs or rodent infestations since at least 2012, and the most recent bedbug reporting periods from 2022-2024 show zero infested or eradicated units. While prior maintenance violations have been addressed, the recurring heating system issues suggest ongoing infrastructure challenges.
