57-42 Waldron Street, Queens, NY 11368

The three-story, three-unit building at 57-42 Waldron Street in Corona, owned by Vijay Suchdev and constructed in 1984, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there were multiple heat and hot water-related complaints in 2020 (November 13 and 29), with violations issued by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

The building has also faced various infrastructure challenges, including an appliance issue (electric/gas range) in September 2020, and a plumbing problem involving a basin/sink in July 2019. Of particular concern were multiple violations documented in December 2020 in Apartment 1, including issues with missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, an active roach infestation, visible mold in the bathroom, and problems with plastered surfaces and paint in the same area, though most of these violations were subsequently addressed by 2021. The building has maintained a consistent record of addressing bedbug reporting requirements, with the most recent submissions in 2024 indicating no infested units during the previous reporting periods from 2021 through 2024.

However, rodent inspections show a mixed record, with initial inspections in January 2019 and April 2012 resulting in findings of rat activity, though subsequent compliance inspections passed. The property has maintained active compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 to 2024, showing proper documentation of infestations and eradications, though none were reported during these periods. The most recent violations from April 2024 related to bedbug reporting requirements are currently marked as closed.
