58-37 Waldron Street, Queens, NY 11368

58-37 Waldron Street is a three-story, five-unit residential building in Corona, constructed in 1989 and currently owned by Rita Ren. The property has experienced several maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant being a heat and hot water problem in November 2023 that resulted in violations, and multiple pest infestations (including mice and roaches) documented in violations from late 2023 affecting apartment 3R. The building's infrastructure has faced challenges, including a boiler-related violation in June 2024 for operating without proper permits, which incurred a $2,500 penalty, though this was subsequently resolved.

Other notable issues include a power outage in March 2023, unsanitary garbage/recycling conditions, and various maintenance matters including wall repairs and appliance concerns, all of which were investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). The building's record shows some persistent issues with pest control, as evidenced by multiple pest-related complaints, though recent bedbug reports from late 2024 indicate no current infestations. There are also several open violations regarding building safety protocols, including access to heating systems and door maintenance requirements. The property has undergone routine HPD inspections which have resulted in various violations, including issues with smoke detector maintenance, pest control, and water heater access.

While many past violations have been addressed, a 2024 inspection revealed a Class B violation regarding the central heating plant enclosure in the cellar. The building's record includes routine maintenance complaints that were resolved without violations, such as issues with wall conditions, electrical systems, and garbage storage. The most recent bedbug reports from 2022-2023 show no reported infestations during that period, suggesting some improvement in pest management. The building has passed earlier rodent inspections (as of 2012), though recent pest-related violations indicate this may no longer reflect current conditions.
